Boks: Lou Reed

7. oktober 2016

Den 7. oktober udsendes The RCA and Arista Album Collection med afdøde Lou Reed omsider. Dermed er boksificeringen færdiggjort, for hans indspilninger for Sire Records er for længst udkommet. Heldigvis har jeg i forvejen de ialt seksten albums, der er med i den nye boks og behøver derfor ikke at gå i banken. Alle pladerne er blevet lydforbedret af Reed selv, få måneder før hans for tidlige bortgang.

  1. Lou Reed (April 1972)
  2. Transformer (November 1972)
  3. Berlin (July 1973)
  4. Rock ‘n’ Roll Animal (February 1974)
  5. Sally Can’t Dance (August 1974)
  6. Metal Machine Music (July 1975)
  7. Coney Island Baby (December 1975)
  8. Rock and Roll Heart (October 1976)
  9. Street Hassle (February 1978)
  10. Lou Reed Live: Take No Prisoners (November 1978) (2 CDs)

Dagens citat: Kate Tempest

“It’s just f**king hysteria. We are living in this absolute madness. Absolute f**king madness. No wonder everyone’s feeling so mental. The conversations that I’ve had with people, they’re saying this is always the way it’s been. People have always felt terrified about where the world is heading. In the Cold War, people were living with the very real threat of the end of the world. And I do understand that. But in terms of where we’re heading, with the daily advancements and the impossibility of seeing anything as a whole – I’m talking about economics, technological advancements, humans fusing with cyborgs, nano-robots that cure and detect diseases, international relations – nobody can see where we’re heading.” (Kate Tempest i The Independent)
