LEONARD COHEN Live At The Isle Of Wight 1970 (2009 UK 2-disc [Region 0 NTSC DVD/CD] set - Early, 40 summers ago on August 31st 1970, 35-year-old Leonard Cohen was awakened at 2am from a nap in his trailer and brought onstage to perform with his band at the third annual Isle Of Wight music festival. The audience of 600,000 was in a fiery and frenzied mood, after turning the festival into a political arena, trampling the fences, setting fire to structures and equipment – and stoked by the most incendiary performance of Jimi Hendrix's career. As Cohen followed Hendrix's set, onlookers and [fellow festival headliners] Joan Baez, Kris Kristofferson, Judy Collins and others stood side stage in awe as the Canadian folksinger songwriter- poet-novelist quietly tamed the crowd. Academy Award-winning documentary filmmaker Murray Lerner, whose footage of the 1970 festival did not begin to see release until 1995, was able to capture Cohen's performance. This 2-disc set contains the new documentary by Lerner and the full performance on CD. Presented in a sealed fold-out digipak picture sleeve)
