Leonard Cohen died three weeks after releasing his last record, You Want It Darker, in 2016. It was the first album he worked on with his son, Adam. In mourning, Adam turned his attention to poems of his father’s that he recorded while putting that last record together. He then decided to set those poems to music. The result is Leonard Cohen’s new album, Thanks for the Dance. Adam talks with Rick Rubin from Shangri La about his father’s musical legacy, family life and how this album came together.
