LEONARD COHEN - Hamburg, The World, 14 July 2013


This is my recording of Leonard Cohen's show at the O2 World in Hamburg, Germany on 14 July, 2013. The recording is excellent!


Recording conditions were a bit difficult because the audience was VERY enthusiastic between songs. Since some of the songs were very quiet, it was really difficult to decide what to do with this recording to make it listenable. I decided AGAINST massive level adjustment because it would have ruined the natural flow of the recording. I went for a compromise which is, in my opinion, acceptable. Some of the songs are still a little bit on the quiet side, but the sound of the music on this recording is really good!!
