"You’ve got to be serious about what you do. And you’ve got to understand the price you pay for frivolity or just for greed...it’s a very high price, especially if you’re involved in this sacred material, which is about the human heart and human desire and human tragedy. If there isn’t some element of seriousness in the training of the artist or in the atmosphere that surrounds the enterprise, then this shabbiness grows and eventually overwhelms it. I think that’s what we’re in now."

"I remember her well in the Chelsea Hotel..."
Leonard Cohen, who lived there, writing about his relationship there, with Janis Joplin.
Jefferson Airplane, Johnny Rotten, and other musicians, along with writers and poets, lived here like a great Big Apple commune...
It's been boarded up, fraught with lawsuits, squatters, and shifting owners over many years - decades! The construction blocks and suits have subsided, and in March 2022 (I learned at/from the source today), it re-opened. So I just happened to be there today, and it's looking good! They have rooms available, open to the public, gorgeous lobby and dining/lounge facilities, friendly staff - so much different than years past, like a war zone. Scaffolding is still up but the hotel is looking "contemporary grand", I'd call it, with a touch of "boutique" NY, but still with some scaffolding on the changing block. Other than that, it's still a vibrant neighborhood (Chelsea) and about a one minute walk to great stores and public transportation.
No, I'm not an employee/rep!. But for tourists in NY who want a special sort of history behind their hotel stay, here's your chance.

"I remember you well in the Chelsea Hotel
You were famous, your heart was a legend
You told me again you preferred handsome men
But for me you would make an exception".....

Leonard Cohen - Ain't No Cure For Love
I have been revisiting the Live in London Leonard Cohen's album, for me it is the best of his live recordings and one to which I return many times. The only thing missing is the songs and poems from his last albums that were not released at this time.
This music is probably not the best in all concert but for me has a very personal importance and his introduction to it, sadly missing in this video, on how cheerfulness can break through also so much on what I connect to his music.
