Paul Zollo captured these images of Leonard Cohen and Anjani at a cafe on Pico Boulevard on February 26, 2007 and graciously agreed to the shots being reposted here.

Paul Zollo also wrote From Songwriters On Songwriting, an insightful book which includes a section on Leonard Cohen (available at Leonard Cohen Los Angeles 1992). Over the years, I've posted several Leonard Cohen quotes from this piece. One of my favorites has to do with songwriting:

... After a while, if you stick with a song long enough it will yield. But long enough is way beyond any reasonable estimation of what you think long enough may be. In fact, long enough is way beyond. It’s abandoning, it’s abandoning that idea of what you think long enough may be.

Because if you think it’s a week, that’s not long enough. If you think it’s a month, it’s not long enough. If you think it’s a year, it’s not long enough. If you think it’s a decade, it’s not long enough.

The photo below of Paul Zollo and Leonard Cohen on the porch of Cohen's L.A. home was taken by Henry Diltz in 1992.

The good news about the choice of photos of Leonard Cohen for the cover of the March 2012 German edition of Rolling Stone is that (1) it's a photo of Leonard Cohen and (2) it's one of my favorite photos of the Canadian singer-songwriter.

The bad news about the choice of photos of Leonard Cohen for the cover of the German edition of Rolling Stone is that it's one of everybody's favorite photos of Leonard Cohen.

The shot by Platon has appeared in multiple magazines and on hundreds of web sites. Yep, it's a case of LC Déjà Vu

1. Idol Chatter by Brantley Bardin (Premiere Magazine, June 2006)
2. The Word (June 2006) found at Recycled Mags
3. Words by Leonard Cohen by Tom Payne (The Telegraph, 23 February 2012)

That image even graces the cover of DrHGuy's own Leonard Cohen Primer.

Platon also took the iconic photo that first appeared in the November 2001  issue of GQ

The popularity of recently posted Leonard Cohen With Pooch pix, A Very Young Leonard Cohen With Friend and What You Don’t Know About Leonard Cohen’s “Old Ideas” Album – The Original “Old Dog” Name & Art, has led to the reposting of this doggie shot.

…You run through your top ten erotic fantasies, ambition fantasies, revenge fantasies, global ratification fantasies. You run through them all until you bore yourself to death, basically, and the faculty that produces opinions and snap judgments and unrealistic scenarios for your own prominence, after you run through them for a number of years, they cease to have charge. They bore themselves into non-existence. You see them as diversions from another kind of intimacy that you become more interested in – and that is what Socrates said: Know Thyself.

The photo of Leonard Cohen & pooch at What You Don’t Know About Leonard Cohen’s “Old Ideas” Album – The Original “Old Dog” Name & Art led Dominique BOILE.to contribute this July 1935 shot of Leonard Cohen (10 mons) and his first dog, Kelef (age unknown). From Various Positions by Ira Nadel.
