Another musical talent who will be sadly missed. My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

I was with Gene Wilder in the Randolph Hotel in Oxford where he shook my hand and thanked me for driving him safely from one location to another. He was a really great guy and an equally great actor who will be sadly missed by all. My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

Edward Lever Posts: 734 Joined: 22nd Dec 2005 Location: UK	quotePosted at 00:57 on 12th November 2016 Indeed, Rod, Leonard Cohen was one of the greats and a favourite of mine alongside Bob Dylan. A deeply spiritual man, spending quite a long time in latter years as a Buddhist Monk, but I suspect his psyche was still intertwined with his Jewish roots (in common with Dylan). As for late night listening, I find the lyrics to be captivating but a tad melancholy at times, best taken with red wine. I hope Kaddish is said for him.
