Lou Reed: Words & Music, May 1965 Ltd Clr

LP Record The cassette tape of their first demos, recorded on 11th May 1965 and kept under lock and key to this day, reveals traces of things rarely associated with the Velvet Underground: Blues and folk, earthy and traditional, uncertain and hesitant – yet still infused with Lou Reed's rusty, sardonic spirit. It's a revelation. " - Will Hodgkinson, MOJO. Light in the Attic Records, in cooperation with Laurie Anderson, proudly presents the first title in the ongoing Lou Reed Archival Series: "Words & Music, May 1965". Released to celebrate what would have been the artist's 80th birthday, the album offers an extraordinary, unvarnished, and poignant glimpse into one of America's truly great poets and songwriters.
