When Leonard Cohen died this past Nov. 7, Vin immediately flashed back to the interview he did with him on June 13, 1993. We knew we had to play it in its entirety for this episode of our podcast. This originally aired live on the Sunday night sojourn of Idiot's Delight on WXRK (92.3 KROCK) in New York. The first attack on the World Trade Center in late February 1993 was still on everyone's mind; thoughts and questions about the nature of "the terrorist mentality" were very much in the air. Leonard's latest album was "The Future." He was in New York for a concert. His thoughts on the subject were vivid and have proved chillingly prescient over the years.
