I may  be weird but my favorite Lou Reed would be “Berlin”

Favorite Velvet Underground was the And Warhol Banana album

@dfwgator
I was fool enough to buy Metal Machine Music when it first came out. Aside from thinking there was a letter missing in the first word of the title, I thought to myself, at last I know what it would sound like if you could set up a jam session between five pipe grinders, three air conditioners, six electric drills, six power routers, two mixed choirs of butcher saws, and twelve Sunbeam Mixmasters. Except that the Mixmasters beat feet and escaped after the first three bars because at least Mixmasters play lovely, melodious tones . . .
