I have no Coldplay, but have heard them & not turned them off, Martin.
They are, um, rather Huge right now.
As for L Cohen, if the special, Live In London shows up on your TV
schedules, check it out (it was I think a CBC/BBC co-production): the
old guy still has it, & a terrific band (maybe it's the new liver
album?).
