 Luciano Panama

Famous Blue Raincoat (live session video)


This Leonard Cohen cover, live from somewhere in Milano, Italy, is just Luciano on electric guitar, doing this cover maybe the way Elliot Smith would have, just louder and more electric.


It’s very good, very atmospheric, filmed at 4 AM, in what looks like a park, with apartment buildings, some with their lights on, in the background. It’s the perfect song for that time of the night, and one of Cohen’s best songs. Try it. I suspect you’ll like it as much as I do.
