Lou Reed is such a unique song writer. Often imitated, never duplicated. I can't say I enjoyed this album, but I am certain it is the work of a genius.

Rated 6/10
This was fine. I'm glad we've moved away from the bad organ setting on keyboards. The title track was novel in a very fun way.
Rated 8/10
This is such cool instrumentation and great song writing let down by lackluster vocals. A few voice lessons could have made this top tier.
Rated 8/10
They rock hard, but I am glad we have evolved past those particular keyboard settings
Rated 6/10
I was disappointed about about how typical this album seems. To my novice ears, very little differentiates this album from its contemporary hiphop peers.
Rated 10/10
Another album I can sing from memory. I'm too familiar to know for sure if it's actually good, But the storytelling is so evocative and emotive and the instrumentation is pitch perfect, just . What I can say for certain is I love it very very much.
Rated 10/10
Very Of Montreal. Kind of Surreal, Kind of pop, all wonderful.
Rated 10/10
some really important tracks and some really beautiful production
Simple and pretty
Rated 8/10
Well played instruments and strange noises in a slight deviation from rock sound gone hard. Good punk.
Are we sure Scott LaFaro knew how to play? Is his bass tuned correctly? The piano and drums were very nice, but even when not the centerpiece, the bass never sounded fully in tune. I'm all for some spicy chords and the occasional out there solo, but the CONSTANT aimless atonal bass waffling is not for me. Jade Visions was the best track simply for the least bass.
Rated 8/10
So cool. So fun. Seems like he was ahead of his time, but they just partied harder in the 70's
Rated 8/10
Incredible blues. I just don't care for the blues.

Pleasant

Very fun, Oh Baby was incredible.
So quintessential it has become omnipresent, musical shorthand for the period. Brilliant in writing and execution.
Rated 2/10
Nope, did not listen, I still cannot support the work of this antisemitic fascist sympathizer.
Rated 10/10
Masterful. Reminiscent of Peter Paul and Mary.
The Greatest Singer singing the Greatest Songbook.
