What Did You Expect? Songs Sensitively and Honestly Dealing with the Experiences of Being Gay

Michael Cohen
What Did You Expect? Songs Sensitively and Honestly Dealing with the Experiences of Being Gay The late 1960s-early 1970s marked an important stage in the LGBTQ rights movement in the United States, and singer-songwriter Michael Cohen was a pioneering voice on the personal experience of being gay during this period. His poetic lyrics deal with coming out, drug use, love, promiscuity, self-doubt and self-worth. Out of "bitter beginnings...I'll know my life is worth living." Liner notes include handwritten lyrics and illustrations.
