This album became the most successful studio album which Cohen had released in the US and it reached number one in several European countries transforming Cohen into a best-selling artist. It was a stunningly sophisticated leap into modern musical textures and re-established Leonard Cohen's mastery. Against a backdrop of keyboards and propulsive rhythms, Cohen surveyed the global landscape with a precise, unflinching eye.
