Perfect music for a cold, grey, rainy November day. And no, I am not listening to this 'ironically'. As an early acolyte of the "beauty in noise" ethos, I was fascinated by this album from the very first time I heard it in the '70s. Though I never got to realize my dream of seeing the Velvet Underground in concert, I did see Lou Reed many times, and had another of my wishes fulfilled in 2008 when Lou Reed put together the Metal Machine Trio (with Ulrich Krieger and Sarth Calhoun) and played the REDCAT Theatre at Walt Disney Concert Hall. How funny that two of the LOUDEST concerts I have ever heard (Metal Machine Trio in 2008, Glenn Branca's Symphony for 100 Guitars in 2006) took place in a venue normally reserved for classical music.

Missing Lou. :(
