Lou Reed

In March 1996, Lou Reed performed live at KCRW Studios in Santa Monica for the 'Morning Becomes Eclectic' radio show. This performance came shortly after the release of his album 'Set the Twilight Reeling,' which was launched in 1996 and marked a shift towards a more reflective and personal style. Known for his cutting lyrics and innovative sound, Reed's live set during this time echoed the themes of exploration and introspection found in the album. It's fascinating to note how Reed's career has transcended various music scenes, from the gritty days with The Velvet Underground to his solo ventures that included collaborations with varied artists and styles. This performance stands out not just for its music but also for its raw and intimate atmosphere, encapsulating Reed's enduring legacy as a genre-defying artist.
