In Praise Of...Lou Reed "Take No Prisoners"

Right, exactly.

If one of the callers had really known some obscure doo wop trivia that would have been a distant second

That was the other radio show, some young kid said how much he likednthatvstuff..

Christmas has come early.

Yeh

So "Lou Reed: Live" (aka R&R Animal Pt.2) isn't in the set?

some have speculated that it is being folded into R&R Animal? which would make sense. no Live in Italy either, though that was always an import...

man Lou really liked "Gimme Gimme Good Lovin"

Me too. Guitar playing is pure Lou.

this radio recording sounds like it's ... kinda slow? Like the tape speed is not right? The Dion song and Gimme Gimme Good Lovin both sounded like they're slower/in a different key than they should be. (I'm just listening to this whole thing now).

i think the tape speed kinda wobbles a little bit throughout.
xp it really is! though i wouldn't have really realized it til i heard him playing it on the WPIX shows.

It's pretty much what I liked about "Gimme Gimme Some Good Times Good' Lovin'" the first time I heard it, which was not yesterday.

lol @ "I'm not a map"

Yes! That was Lou at his most Louist.

Go write a bible

Your mother, your father, your cocksucking brother, they don't mean shit to me

We were driving around the other wknd and "Walk On the Wild Side" from this came up on the 'pod. At abt the 11 minute point my wife stopped and said "Wait, is he still playing the same song? Wait has even played the song? This has been going on for 11 minutes?"

RELEASE THE TAPES!

yo the SECOND song on that '78 WFMU broadcast is the SECOND track i put on a mix a few days of "songs that sound like oh sweet nuthin" for that one thread

it's dion "your own back yard"

Cool.

I think John Cale's "The Jeweler" was played before that home tape was rolling, but haven't checked in a while.

Great article just there btw
That guy has some good stuff on his blog besides the two links posted here, including more Lou, like this one: https://damienlove.com/writing/through-the-ringer-lou-reeds-the-bells/
