video about this amazing rock opera written in 1978 by the best living rock songwriter, the NYC man Lou Reed. The song is divided into three parts (Walzing Matilda, Street Hassle, Slip Away), which have all the same music structure that meets first the orchestra, then acoustic guitars and rock bass guitars, and at the end the prayer of a penitent man, made of tears..
"Love has gone away
and there's no one here now
And there's nothing left to say
but oh how I miss him, baby
Ah baby, come on and slip away
come on baby, why don't you slip away.."
the Lou's masterpiece.

OMG! I think that's Mary Woronov (Miss Togar from R&R High School) at the 5:00 mark. A lot of this is old Warhol footage and she was a player back then

@SlamJaw Gracias por la corrección. Yo creí que John Cale estaba allí, porque la ejecución del cello en esa melodía es algo que considero muy acorde a lo que Cale suele hacer. Ya eliminé el comentario que era, además, de muy mal gusto.
