Contract killers (Live Libel)

I enjoyed Clive's comments on the track Why? from the liner notes to Live Libel:
"Only God, Christ and Holy Mary know how very much I wish that I had never done this. I blame Pete for allowing it to happen. We might have been out to kill a contract, but that was no excuse for murder."
And more than 30 years on from Doom From A Room, both Pete and Clive acknowledge the quality in Leonard Cohen's work, Pete calling the Canadian "a great comfort and an inspiration," while Clive comments: "There isn't a lyricist alive who doesn't long to get hit by a line like 'A thousand kisses deep.' The old moaner's really got the secret..."
Hearing A King at Nightfall in its new, spruced-up format
convinces me all over again that it's our heroes' finest creative hour.
