Product Description

Lou Reed, the legendary figure in the world of rock and roll, delivered a raw and powerful punch with his 1976 album "Rock and Roll Heart." This isn't just another album; it's a testament to Reed's enduring influence and his ability to blend glam rock and proto-punk into a sound that's uniquely his own. Released under Buddha Records, this 37-minute journey is a collection of 12 tracks that showcase Reed's signature wit, poetic lyrics, and unapologetic attitude.

From the opening track "I Believe In Love" to the closing notes of "Temporary Thing," Reed takes you through a whirlwind of emotions and experiences. "Banging On My Drum" and "Rock and Roll Heart" are anthems of rebellion, while "You Wear It So Well" and "Follow the Leader" offer a glimpse into Reed's introspective side. The album also features standout tracks like "Senselessly Cruel" and "Vicious Circle," which highlight Reed's knack for storytelling and his ability to capture the essence of human nature in his music.

"Rock and Roll Heart" is a must-listen for any fan of Lou Reed or anyone looking to explore the roots of punk and glam rock. It's a snapshot of a pivotal moment in music history, captured by one of the genre's most iconic figures. So, plug in your headphones, turn up the volume, and let Lou Reed take you on a ride through the heart of rock and roll.

This is a 1980 Reissue released as a LP.

  • Brilliant Overlooked Gem

    4 out of 5 stars
    jnetq16 September 2025United States🇺🇸

    Absolutely! I reckon this one's unfairly overlooked. It's got my vote. ''You Wear It So Well'' is absolutely brilliant, if you ask me.

  • Vinyl's Sound Quality Shines

    5 out of 5 stars
    hunvzmeu29 July 2025United States🇺🇸

    Great channel separation and crisp, tight dynamics. The bass is punchy and well-defined, with a solid overall balance. This vinyl pressing is absolutely fantastic. I might even prefer the sound quality over the songs themselves, though it's not a bad album, just not a top favorite. I'm glad I grabbed this vinyl because it's more lively than the recent remaster from the box set. [Tech specs in my profile].

  • Promo Album Variant Found

    4 out of 5 stars
    zexruqoqnapin26 August 2024United States🇺🇸

    Has anyone else come across the other promotional version of this album? Essentially, it's got a light blue Arista logo on the label and 'Not for sale Promotional Copy' written across and spread out over the upper part of the label. The text is also more refined and sleek.

About Lou Reed

Lou Reed, the pioneering American rock musician, left an indelible mark on the music scene with his raw, poetic lyrics and innovative sound. Born in 1942 and passing away in 2013, Reed was a central figure in the glam rock and proto-punk genres, known for his distinctive voice and provocative themes. As the frontman of The Velvet Underground, he influenced countless artists and helped shape the sound of rock music. His solo career was equally groundbreaking, with albums like "Transformer" and "Berlin" showcasing his versatility and depth. Reed's music, often edgy and introspective, continues to resonate with audiences, making him a legendary figure in rock history.
