Album artwork for Recent Songs by Leonard Cohen

Recent Songs is the sixth studio album by Leonard Cohen, released in 1979. It was a return to Cohen's acoustic folk music after the Phil Spector experimentation of Death Of A Ladies' Man, but now with many jazz and oriental influences.

The album includes gypsy violin player Raffi Hakopian, and even a Mexican mariachi band. Long-time Cohen collaborator Jennifer Warnes prominently appears in vocal tracks. Members of the band Passenger played on four of the songs and Garth Hudson of The Band also appeared on the album.
