''New Skin for the Old Ceremony'' was Leonard Cohen's fourth studio album. On this album, he begins to evolve away from the rawer sound of his earlier albums, with violas, mandolins, banjos, guitars, percussion and other instruments giving the album a more orchestrated (but nevertheless spare) sound.
A remastered CD was released in 1995.
The album is silver in the UK, but never dented the Billboard Top 200.
In 2009, it was included in ''Hallelujah - The Essential Leonard Cohen Album Collection'', an 8-CD box set issued by Sony Music in the Netherlands. - Wikipedia
