my ears still hurt.Lol. firstly, the bro love is mutual. Secondly, I completely agree, I can’t get my ears around it – and I like stuff like free jazz.
The story may be apocryphal but I like the ring of it so I’m going to maintain it’s true: he created the album to get round a contractual obligation. Rather than produce what the suits wanted, he gave them an album most people would not be able to appreciate.
i love listening to Lou Reed……..he will live on ……forever in my collection
I am so looking forward to the documentaries
RIP …….Take a walk on the wild side x
he did metal machine for sheer spite as his label was demamnding a new album, so he knew he would get sacked for it.
i saw him live in london in 78..he is hardly singa longa lou :) whilst i understood the irony of his encore, it did not appeal to me so i lefy half way through..and that was after 15 mins of the suprememes ” keep me hanging on”..folks paid good money to see him..they deaserved better.
^^ posted at same time as you there cosy,rusty even ! about the contractual thing.. lets just say I do not own a copy of it :)
Never seen him live unfortunately, love his first album, The Velvet Underground and Nico.
Other favourites are Take a walk on the wild side, Sweet Jane, Romeo had Juliette, Dirty Blvd, Satellite of Love,Perfect Day.R.I.P
