Lou Reed/Metallica "Lulu" just awful

Bill, there are at least a dozen extraordinary albums in there across several eras of R&R. Unfortunately not much of late.

Don't agree dgarretson.

The guy is a slug.

I have a similiar opinion of David Bowie.

YMMV

love Lou Reed's older stuff...hate this albume. i agree...it really is that bad.

ROCK N ROLL ANIMAL, NEW YORK, MISTRIALS to name a few are great albums.

Bill for a NY-metro guy you need to get out more. Magic and Loss, Lou's fine tribute to Doc Pomus, forgives all sins. New York is fab-- hello goodbye to Giuliani and the Holloween parade. Set the Twilight Reeling is all egg cream, Songs for Drella is elegy to Warhol's NY with the great John Cale, Legendary Hearts is Rt. 80 on a Kawasaki, Growing Up in Public with your pants down. The best of LR is personal and transcendant.
