Somehow even darker and more melancholy than Songs of Leonard Cohen, Songs From a Room is an emotionally claustrophobic set produced with austere beauty by Bob Johnston. The arrangements are eerily spare, heightening the impact of Cohen’s weary vocals; the intermittent and idiosyncratic appearance of a mouth harp only adds to the record’s overwhelming sense of disorientation. Superb acoustic guitarwork weaves a path throughout the bewitching melodies, enhancing the singer’s spell, although Cohen’s self-deprecating humour is equally prevalent, particularly on the singalong ‘Tonight Will Be Fine’. Songs From A Room captures every facet of Cohen’s inestimable talent. While not as uniformly strong as its predecessor, Songs From a Room does contain a number of Cohen’s finest compositions, including “Bird on the Wire,” “Lady Midnight,” and “Story of Isaac.”
