it´s fun to see lou play flipper, I think he was very good at that. this must have been the best gig in rock history. I wish I could have seen it but it´s gone. lou looks like some creek god here or a statue of liberty of rock and roll. those who went there must have had a life chancing experience
you know some people they got no choice and they can't even find a voice to talk with that they can even call their own, so the firssst thing that they see, that allows them the right they be, why they follow it, you know what it's called man? BAD LUCK.
Who say's this is a shit band? I like this, so it can't be too bad? In fact, I think this is the shit! I think is one of the most memorable renditions of Street Hassle that I've ever heard. Try explaining this to a Police officer, huh?
Forgot how intense this was, and how much I loved it way back when it first came out. I have it on vinyl, but no record player anymore. Something sad about that...
You know, if I had keys to the Dr who's "Tardis"...I'd be back to this, and amongst the stoned crowed! Yyyyeeeee Hhhhaaaaa!

Oh, and by the way, Lou should play lead more often. It adds a piece of magick to the songs. LOU REED on LEAD guitar. WOW!

Certainly not the same without that creepy contribution from the Boss on the studio recording, but this is creepy in an altogether different manner.

I saw Lou with this lineup at the Bottom Line (NYC). hearing "Street Hassle" live was a very moving experience. great memories indeed.
