#109: Transformer by Lou Reed
Lou Reed! He was the guitarist, singer, and principal songwriter for the rock band The Velvet Underground, but beyond that also crafted a solo career that spanned five decades. In this episode, we take a look at Transformer, the album that birthed "Walk On The Wild Side," perhaps his most well-known and iconic song. What did we think about this album, and how it fits with the greatest albums of all time? Listen to find out!

Customer Reviews
Excellent!
Just Two Friends (and their guests) discussing and reviewing the Rolling Stone Top 500 albums of all time. I really like the thought provoking discussions that come from digging up the details and context of the albums and comparing that message to today!
i listen for the accents
awesome!! go Ben and Mike!
great duo
As a person in my sixties I could never see what was so great about Bob Dylan. Geez it took me a few minutes just to remember his name. I think Rubber Soul and Revolver where my favorite albums of the time because they stepped out of the teeniebopper sound. Electric keyboards were a new thing and they widened the aural plane. Edit. I went back and listened to highway 61 while reading the lyrics. It made more sense when I knew what he was singing. A weakness of mine has always been putting the musicality first and adding the words later. Bob writes great lyrics. My only problem is this is one podcast that won't download to my device. Always get an error message.
