:''"Tower of Song" is also the name of a Leonard Cohen song first released on the I'm Your Man album'' ''Tower of Song: The Songs of Leonard Cohen'' is a tribute album to Leonard Cohen, released in 1995 on A&M Records. It takes its name from a song by Cohen which originally appeared on Cohen's album ''I'm Your Man.'' However the song "Tower of Song" does not actually appear on this tribute album. Unlike the 1991 Cohen tribute album ''I'm Your Fan'', that was recorded by a lineup of alternative rock groups like The House of Love and the Pixies, ''Tower of Song'' featured relatively well-known, mainstream artists like Elton John, Sting with The Chieftains, Billy Joel, Peter Gabriel and Bono of U2. The album received a negative review from critic Roch Parisien at Allmusic who called the album "a total train wreck."〔(allmusic ((( Tower of Song: The Songs of Leonard Cohen > Overview ))) )〕 However, this view was not shared by Cohen himself who discussed his generally positive view of the album with Chris Douridas at KCRW Radio Station, citing his personal preference for Billy Joel's version of "Light As the Breeze" over his own version.〔Douridas, Chris.
