Birds On The Wire

I’ve just discovered two interviews that Andrew Eldritch , the man behind The Sisters Of Mercy, did with David Bowie and Leonard Cohen. Which is a meeting of the Holy Trinity in my book. The Eldritch / Cohen interview in particular is wonderful - if I could get an interview with Cohen for Spike, I could die a happy man. A strange one for Eldritch too, interviewing two of his heroes - seeing Starman on Top Of The Pops is what made him want to be a rock star (along with just about everyone else who saw it) and the name of his band comes from the Cohen song of the same title.
