As is often their wont, Mojo magazine have produced another fine cover disc this month, with a tribute to Leonard Cohen’s masterpiece of a debut The Songs Of Leonard Cohen plus a ‘bonus’ of five extra classic tracks from his back catalogue.
The array of artists is mightily impressive from acclaimed new soul artist Michael Kiwanuka to Cass McCombs, Field Music and J Tillman recording under the name Father John Misty. The bonus tracks include Dan Michaelson, Diagrams and My Brightest Diamond.
As always, Mojo is available from all decent newsagents. Certainly worth it as it is one of the best music monthlies we have.
Here are two of our favourites from Bill Callahan and his version of So Long Marianne and the Low Anthem putting their stamp on Stories Of The Street.

This looks great mate. Which song does Dan Michaelson cover? Does anyone do Suzanne? Also, can I grab that copy of Mojo off you, please? I’d like to read what the Mac has to say.
