As a big fan of this album, I decided to grab the Record Store Day version, which is also its first vinyl release. It's great, the sound quality is excellent. The only issue I have is that my copy somehow came with two copies of disc 3 and no disc 2... So, no "Vanishing Act" or "Broadway Song" for me :P
This album is fantastic. It seems like many folks are always searching for Lou Reed's Velvet Underground vibe, but here's the thing: post-Velvet Underground, Lou Reed was so much more than that. He ventured out in his own unique way, trying different things, and yet, most of his work is constantly compared to the VU discography, which just doesn't make sense. This record is amazing, with incredible music, spoken word, and great songs. Every line is delivered with such passion. I'm thrilled that Lou Reed found a love for poetry in his later works, even in his collaboration with Metallica, which deserves its own separate discussion. This is a perfect album to unwind to after a long day. Instead of watching TV or a movie, I put this on, have the lyrics up on Genius, and it's an enjoyable read and listen.
The audio quality is great and it's pressed on nice vinyl. I picked this up at a local record shop not realizing it was a spoken word album, but it's really intriguing!
