Live from Puglia: "How Leonard Cohen Learned to Play Guitar" 🎸
|
Hey, The first show of the 2026 Italian tour just happened — and it's already online. This is a live clip from Sotto l'Arco – Donna Clementina in Gioia del Colle (BA), opening night of the tour, organized by Almost Halloween Time Records and Stand Alone Complex. The song is "How Leonard Cohen Learned to Play Guitar" — one of my favorites to play, and even better live. There's something about this one in a room full of people that just hits different. The tour keeps going: 24/07 — Barzak, Torre Santa Susanna (BR) More videos from the tour are up (and more coming soon) on Almost Halloween Time Records' channel and AHT TV. Thanks for listening. — Bradley

Friends — The new record is called Homage to Catalonia. It's my sixth, and it comes out in January. The next song from it arrives on 18 September. It's called "Cadaqués Cowboy," and it imagines Salvador Dalà as a spaghetti-western drifter — kind of an alien, but always playing with reality. Cadaqués is the white village up the Costa Brava where Dalà kept a house. You drive over a mountain to get there, and then the road simply stops, because there's nowhere further to go. I've been in...
