Songs of Leonard Cohen is the debut album by Canadian folk singer-songwriter Leonard Cohen, released on December 27, 1967 on Columbia Records. Less successful in the US than in Europe, Songs of Leonard Cohen foreshadowed the kind of chart success Cohen would go on to achieve. It reached number 83 on the Billboard 200 and achieving gold status in the US only in 1989, but peaked at number 13 on the UK Albums Chart, and spent nearly a year and a half on it.

It’s light enough/To let it go, sing Cohen and Warnes, as subdued as the glow of their cigarettes, while a plaintive English horn defines the heartbreak they won’t approach or admit. He’s also learned enough to realize that such pressures aren’t one-sided. It’s probably coincidental that, in the album-ending Ballad of the Absent Mare (ostensibly borrowed from the Chinese), the tale’s told from the cowboy’s point of view. Horse and rider - reunited only to part again - ride each other, joined by a kind of love so intense that each begs mentally for solitude: She longs to be lost and he longs for the sam. And it’s time for their burden, it’s time for the whip/Will she walk through the flame, can he shoot from the hip.
