A stunningly sophisticated leap into modern musical textures, I'm Your Man re-establishes Leonard Cohen's mastery. Against a backdrop of keyboards and propulsive rhythms, Cohen surveys the global landscape with a precise, unflinching eye: the opening "First We Take Manhattan" is an ominous fantasy of commercial success bundled in crypto-fascist imagery, while the remarkable "Everybody Knows" is a cynical catalog of the land mines littering the surface of love in the age of AIDS.

Leonard Cohen had gained fame as a poet and singer in the late 1960s and continued his creative output successfully throughout the '70s. But when the '80s came along, things didn't go so smoothly. That is, until he drastically changed his sound with the 1988 album I'm Your Man.

Synthesizers ruled, and a dark humor was added to his baritone. With enormous critical and commercial success, I'm Your Man is ranked amongst Cohen's best albums. Now available on vinyl again for the first time since 1988!
