Maken till comeback var det längesen man såg. Albumet Across the Universe som släpptes 2015 blev en succe' världen över och framförallt i Storbritannien. Då ska inte prata om turnén som följde på detta. Det märktes att saknaden efter Jeff och ELO låtar varit enorm. Spelningarna förvandlades till ett enda långt karaoke party. Tyvärr nådde inte turnén Sverige denna gång, men vi håller tummarna för en spelning framöver. Tills dels för vi ge oss till tåls med detta album och DVD från den utsålda Wembley konserten i juni 2017.

This special 2-disc package in a 7-inch sleeve contains the "Atom Heart Mother" album on CD and a Blu-ray disc featuring newly discovered video of Pink Floyd's first concert in Japan, at the Hakone Aphrodite festival from over 50 years ago.<br/><br/>This is a limited edition, one-off manufacturing run of 20,000 copies for our part of the Pink Floyd world.<br/><br/>Originally only released in Japan in August 2021, the set contains some unique memorabilia - a special photo book containing many rare, never-seen-before photos, reproductions of the pamphlet, the poster, the concert ticket, and the flier distributed at the event.<br/><br/>The only Pink Floyd footage at Hakone Aphrodite that exists is that of the 16-minute-long suite "Atom Heart Mother." The details including whereabouts of the master film and how it was shot had been a mystery for a long time. However, after fifty years, the original 16mm film of this video was discovered in a fan's garage.<br/><br/>The meticulous processes of digitizing, restoring and remastering was undertaken and finally this enhanced video will be released outside of Japan. Over fifty years ago, Japan's first international outdoor rock festival "Hakone Aphrodite" was held at a specially built venue beside Hakone Ashinoko Lake on August 6th and 7th, 1971. Pink Floyd's first ever concert in Japan was as headliner for the festival. Aspiring to be the Japanese Woodstock, The "Hakone Aphrodite" invited many international artists and became the first rock festival experience for many Japanese fans.<br/><br/>The set contains not only the original live footage (with audio taken from the gig at Hakone Aphrodite), but also behind-the-scenes footage of the band, travelling between the airport, the hotel, the press conference, the bullet train, the show set-up, and, of course, beautiful Japanese scenery.

In fact, when Cohen was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame in March 2008, the revered Lou Reed singled out Leonard as one of the "highest and most influential echelon of songwriters." Cohen's songbook has been covered by hundreds of recording artists including Jeff Buckley, Bob Dylan, Nina Simone, Johnny Cash, Lou Reed, Tori Amos, Nick Cave, Joan Baez, Harry Belafonte, Rufus Wainwright and the Civil Wars. Tribute albums have been released in Cohen's honor in France, Norway, Canada, Spain, Swedish, Czech Republic, South Africa and the United States.

Additionally, Leonard's songs have been frequently selected to illustrate the emotion of motion pictures and television programs and have been heard in Watchmen, The Passion of The Christ, Natural Born Killers, The Wonder Boys, Pump Up The Volume, Secretary, The West Wing, The O.C. and many others.<br/><br/>Leonard Cohen has been honored as a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award Recipient (2010), inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame (2008), the Canadian Music Hall Of Fame (2006), the Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame (2006) and the Songwriters Hall Of Fame (2010).

The Canadian native has earned his country's highest civilian honors - Officer of the Order of Canada (1991), Companion to the Order of Canada (2003), Grand Officer of the National Order of Quebec (2008).<br/><br/>Cohen's return to live performance in 2008 was met with extraordinary and unanimous accolades as he performed around the world from through 2013.
