In the last six months, Leonard Cohen has released not one, but two brand new records. Last September, he offered up his 13th studio LP in Popular Problems, and in December, he churned out his Live in Dublin record. With no signs of slowing down, the legendary singer-songwriter is now gearing up to issue Can’t Forget: A Souvenir of the Grand Tour, a new live album of rarities recorded during his recent Old Ideas world tour.
Due out on May 12th via Columbia, the 10-track effort includes never-before-recorded covers of Georges Dor and George Jones, as well as two previously unreleased songs. One of those original compositions is titled “Never Gave Nobody Trouble”, and can be heard in all its rich, bluesy glory below. Listen in.
