  • I was really hoping to avoid uploading non-original material onto this channel, but unfortunately, my other channels lost their good standing, and I have no choice. Don't expect this to happen often.
    There are Lou Reed acoustic demos, recorded in 1970 shortly after he left the Velvet Underground and moved back to Coney Island to live with his parents. There's a lot of analysis and information on these demos; search and you shall discover.
    Fall 1970:
    1. I'm So Free 0:00
    2. I Can't Stand It 2:05
    3. Walk and Talk It 4:44
    Winter 1970:
    4. Going Down 7:38
    5. Ride Into the Sun 10:24
    6. I'm Sticking With You 12:49
    7. Lisa Says 15:05
    8. Kill Our Sons (aka Kill Your Sons) 19:31
    9. Lonely Saturday Night (aka Goodnight Ladies) 22:44
    10. So in Love 24:08
    11. She's My Best Friend 26:15
    12. Looking Through the Eyes of Love (aka Oh Jim) 29:05
    "So in Love" is exclusive, here. A song never revisited.

    Sólo ignorantes pueden decir que Lou no canta, ese timbre es oro puro. Es de las mejores voces de la historia del rock. Y está en la lista de los 100 mejores cantantes de la historia.

      Supongo que lo diran porque Lou no demostraba el maximo potencial de su voz en la mayor parte de su carrera, en estas demos se puede apreciar mucho mas su voz y su forma de tocar guitarra

    I like the more stripped down sound, more he's voice is honest and vulnerable, obviously the quality could be better

    He didn't move to Coney Island as said in the description. He went back to Long Island to work for his father's firm.

      coney island is on long island, south part of Brooklyn.

    • @MrJethco
      @MrJethco 7 років тому +1

      Long Island is Nassau and Suffolk Counties, not Brooklyn. The land mass known as Long Island contains Brooklyn, but nobody who knows what the fuck they're talking about would say "Lou Reed moved to Coney Island" when they mean "Long Island."

    • @d_walsh

      +MrJethco long island consists of Brooklyn and Queens Burroughs, and two counties - Nassau and Suffolk

      Ask anyone in Brooklyn or Queens if they live in "Long Island" and see what kind of response you get. LOL.

    So apparently Lou never learned how to type, as his mother suggested, as it appears he was just working on these tunes in the basement.

    After the Velvets folded, I envisioned Lou's first solo album as something like this. He was a much better acoustic player than electric (except for early feedback work) and despite poor sound, occasional boo-boos, this is my favorite LR album.

    • @II-xl7lj
      @II-xl7lj 2 роки тому +4

      Well, that's a rather strange way of saying it. I think for most fans VU Lou remains the person who in 67-68 extracted the most powerful and fracture sound in the history of rock, and in my opinion that's enough

    Kind of sloopy sometimes, but the hell of a good rythm guitar player and songwriter.

    hey, who thinks they know there Lou/Velvets well? Even if you do i`m pretty ceratin you won`t be able to answer this question i`ve been looking to be answered for years...
    On the pretty decent (but not long enough) Rock`n Roll Heart dvd docu there is a wonderful, very VU sounding, beautiful piece of music that is played a couple of times in this film yet it is not listed on the credits, not on any LR or VU album, nor Time Rocker, nor on any bootleg i`ve ever heard, so what is it? Its pretty quiet and starts at 5mins10seconds. PLEASE HELP `cause it`s tormented me for far too long. jx
