Experience the raw, unbridled energy of Lou Reed captured during one of his most compelling live eras.
Originally recorded in September 1983 and released in early 1984, Live in Italy captures the "New York Maverick" at a creative peak. This 2005 Sony BMG CD reissue brings listeners back to the intense, guitar-driven performances that defined Reed's early '80s output. Backed by a legendary band featuring the incomparable Robert Quine on guitar and Fernando Saunders on bass, the ensemble delivers a sound described as a unique collision of trashy glam-rock and high-intensity grit.
This release is a testament to Reed’s "Velvet Evolution," showcasing a performer who focused less on pop polish and more on the raw power of lyrics and performance intensity. Critically noted for its "meat grinder" arrangements and "weirdness of production," the album stands as a gritty, essential document for fans of Reed’s experimental yet classic rock sensibilities.
