What’s so weird is it feels like he’s not gone
He was so vibrant and full of life in such a different way than most, this video feels like it was recorded today
He had a wonderful sense of humor, and a beautiful laugh. Keep this....you won't see him like this again.
I love that decurtis patiently waits in some places and let’s Lou stay in his whole rhythm- great interview
De Curtis is an excellent journalist, in part because he knows how to LISTEN. Also superb writer…Lou? This must be close to the end. Amazing.
With such iritating laugh
Still listening to Lou, thanks for the music man!
I don't know why they laughed at his idea of writing albums for school. That's still one of the best ideas anyone has ever had. It would solve so many problems long term, it's unreal.
I had an English writing teacher in the 7th grade who would play rush 2112 and then have the class write a dystopian short story that she would judge harshly on the grammatical errors. Not to keen on rush these days, but I remember that really lit a creative spark in me and a reflective side to my young and naive middle school thought process/soul.
How would it solve problems?
@defoperator7993 that's fucked up making u listen to Rush
R.I.P. Lou Reed 1942-2013
Julian designed Lou's penthouse place, which is very much like the Cloisters and was kind enough to allow us to use his own little personal gym to practice our martial art across the street. Thanks Julian!
Julian Schnabel? I love his Berlin-book (mine has Lou Reed's autograph) and the artwork for The Raven...
Helpful in understanding Lou's creative process, style and vision.
It's funny, I went to see Keith Richards talk at the NY Public Library about his book Life (didn't get in), and who was on the steps but Lou Reed.
That's a great autobiography by Richards, one of the best. Duff McKagan's first autobiography is excellent as well because he's also a literature buff like Richards so they both know how a book should be written. Dylan is a bookworm as well and that's why his autobiography is also so great.
Lou taught me how a musician has to stay true to the music.
I love you and I miss you so much. Thanks for so many great concerts. And our 1:30 a.m. freezing winter subway conversation.
What was the conversation about? Help me live vicariously, I just discovered Lou Reed today.
Lou reed was a genius.
This interview was a joy to watch!
The DeCurtis book on Lou Reed is a great read and definitely the best bio of Lou ever written.
I miss Lou Reed
Did the 14 people with thumbs down have guns to their heads !! Love you Lou, New York and the 🌎 misses U.
Anybody with a thumb down
needs to put their thumb up their arse Lou Reed was like no other poet I know but there's no accounting for some people's taste
White Light White Heat going through my veins
I love Lou Reed cause he made you think for yourself
Listen to Lou always and he's never left us
Yeah -- glorifying heroin did a lot to increase the number of heroin addicts, which is as thoughtless as one can get.
Delmore Schwartz: speed freak/paranoid.
And T. S. Eliot was a proto-fascist anti-Semite.
@@jnagarya519 think for yourself and let the music lift your soul
@@kirby711 I do think for myself. And I have a moral compass. Lou Reed glorified drugs especially heroin. And he couldn't care less the destruction he caused.
You have no idea the degraded fringe from which he came -- the spawn of poseur Andy Warhol.
@@kirby711 Lou Reed's music doesn't uplift. It is the production of a destructive individual who glorified in particular heroin. Heroin doesn't "lift the soul".
Stop being blind.
@@jnagarya519 my eyes have seen the glory of Lou Reed in person five times Thanks Lou RIP
Great interview... I feel like writing a song after watching this
I read 3 Lou Reed biographies in a row: the authors were Victor Bockris, Anthony DeCurtis and Howard Sounes.
Anthony DeCurtis wrote the best book by far.
I've tossing the notion around. I'm gonna take your advice and read it. Thank you.
I Still Look Back And Imagine How Audacious It Was For BERLIN To Be The Kind Of Album That It Was - How It Sounded - What The Songs Did To The Listener That Re-Wrote Song Narrative And The Style Of Music Which Was So Brilliant And Dark And Moving - It Really Couldn't Be Done Today Walking A Tightrope As LRD Did On That Album.
Lou is the greatest singer in my mind 4ever.R.I.P
Really? How so? The story telling maybe, I don’t get Lou Recommend me if u would I great album to listen to a few times. Thanks.
I look at people like him and Bowie and hear them talk about other fabulously talented people they know and collaborate with and i think that being an incredible and unique artist could be the best life ever.
This is amazing. First record was Fats Domino. Being from New Orleans that means a lot to me. The Beatles also loved the Fats/Bartholomew stuff too.
2020 and vinal has made a huge comeback there is something about rich comfortable about it
Lou was always more respected in France as one of the greatest eclectic and sensible composer than in others countries.
I miss Lou!
Twenty odd minutes in, he does a very good Chris Walken style "wow".
THIS IS THE ART
This was so fucking fascinating! I just wish I found it earlier, both in the short terms sense of this evening because it's now 4:40 a.m., but mainly in the long term because I gave up on interviews with him ages ago because he was just so flippant and uninformative (I'm not faulting him for it, it was just frustrating to listen to). But this was awesome. Though I can't understand why no one came up with the obvious idea of getting a mic out to the audience - I especially would have liked to hear the question posed to him about interviews.
Good to see this essential interview is working its way up the TH-cam-click-ladder. This one is easily the best available on the site, and it covers a lot of gound. There's the musical tech talk, insight on songwriting approach, a smidgen of the personal, and a few little very sharp jabs that Lou could do better than anyone.
(imagined self-satisfied comment from a music critic): "Well I know what I like..."
Lou: "Oh, I'm sure you do."
Ouch.
92 St. Y is muy chic.
Damn! I'd be sitting in his lap! No invitation needed.
(Sierra's comments via Brad's laptop.)
Julian Schnabel has uber strong quality.
Do I recall his collaberations with John Cale? Must revisit.
Great...Warhol says, DON'T CLEAN IT UP.
Yeah, that would be a disaster.
I love that acknowledges Dylan and Cohen
I’ve always said Lou is right up there with those two greats
I think of Lou as the urban Dylan
I'm still hanging around here
Great interview. Shame about not being able to hear the audience questions, but still good for a Lou Reed interview.
That was annoying
The Raven is brilliant work. Tell Tale heart with all its versions. mmmn. YES!
We here in Eastern Pa had a 60's teen band do a whole LP called....the Raven. all songs put music to Poe's poems. It's probably on you tube-Search Glass Prism the Raven They recently had a reunion show
So surreal to hear him mention Hay Ya by Outkast. Always thought the song was inspired by Sweet Jane.
Lou is the coolest Rock Star ever: irreplaceable.
kiitos
wow.... the truth....Lou's the best.
How much of a fool did the person with the ringing cell phone feel?
"Did you turn it off?"
Classic!
Probably was an American so oblivious
I'm gonna read the acknowledgements again and again
I was there !
yes or undertitled after wards must be possible but the relaxed talking and among mates is great
feel like I've lost a close relative.
@@MikeCaz Fuck you
joel105200 yeah, like the grouchy drunk uncle that you reluctantly invite to family functions.
@@sspbrazil Uncle Lou. You love him despite his flaws. And then he slaps you.
Lionel Raoul haha
🌹👏🏽🌹👏🏽🌹👏🏽🌹
Uncle Lou.
Lou reeeeeddd I doooooooo love lulu the album saved afridah hossains life
superb book that i`ve read a few times now, and one that is far more balanced the VB`s pretty harsh (but entertaining) bash.
Killers and Strokes were basically the same as far as Lou Reed was concerned
I LOVED LULU FOR PFFFFFFFSSSS SAKE
King of New York
It speaks.
I just finished reading Anthony's book on Lou Reed, and it was wonderful. SSo now am listening to the interview which now has more meaning. Has he written any books on Bowie? I read one by Dylan Jones and I wasn't overly impressed; I could tell from his comments in itallics he didn't much like Bowie. Was not a fair and balanced book. Also lots of disorted facts. Anthony wrote what was truthful about Reed and seemed to keep from being opinionated. Thanks for showing the interview!
I remember
What happened with the CIB Outtakes? Tried looking everywhere for a physical copy, but nowhere has it. Found the songs on youtube but I want to own them.
Lou reed wrote sang written lulu for afridah hossain
Lou Reed en particular de los Estados Unidos y es más que un músico es Dios
No, Lou Reed never had the consideration he deserved in USA, so few views even here :(
Lou liked Scott Walker - never heard that before. I’m sure Laurie Andersson and Bowie had a hand in that.
Be nice to hear the question, right?
ohhh, still hard... I feel I have lost my friend..
A boner?
jaye see
LOL🤣
- You gonna be doing a series of performances in a couple of months - Berlin - which is a record that when it came out was highly controversial as so many of your records have been ...
- Not for good reasons
He does not mention the fact that Bowie co- wrote some of the songs on Transformer eg. Take a walk on the Wild side and produced the album…also Berlin.
I wish the questions were miked!
Oh how I wished Reed would have explained why MMM was a DOUBLE record!
David Ames
The further a part the tracks are on vinyl the better it sounds.
Good interview until the interviewer took the spotlight off of Lou when he started eating and chomping into the mic.
A to B was Andy to Brigid Berlin.
😎👍🎸🎸🎸🎸😎
"i was like anybody... in mean.. i was fourteen when i made my first record"
Delmore told Lou that he would hunt him if Lou compromised his work,. Lou always remembered Delmore's admonishion.
hunt=haunt
Some people will never understand why New Yorkers don't like talking about 9/11.
I always read the thumbnail to be 92 years old lou reed
FIND THE GIRL WHOS TYPING THIS NOW IM STILL HERE
Oh boy u can all hear me I could never polyslav
Just the people wo love me can't access me right now
Hello folks
if hes right that puts his first record at 1956. gee i suppose Delmore and Raymond Chandler really made Lou, so for anyone interested thats a fun think to delve into
How does a non-genius determine that someone else is a "genius"?
Antonio De Curtis... in arte Toto'
Andy is writing Andy is writing
I listed to lulu to calm myself
I'm ik I'm live action right now baby
This is a fascinating interview except for the extremely loud fucked up commercials that come in ... .. without warning. The sound levels here are so low. Other wise good job.
ITS MY ART
Dont lose ur grip now read the acknowledgements over and over again
I'm safe
Was he ever full,of himself
did this supposed music journalist say 'when the beatles played at buckingham palace' really?
The man interviewing has the most aristocratic forced laugh, he looks like he's in pain
Amiri Baraka Archie Shepp the Last Poets all made albums you can learn from
I thought a lot of things for years now I'm trapped in a short smug 16 year olds body
Find the 2 afridahs
Is there anyone that makes fun of Lou Reed? I have always liked him as an entertainer, but I wonder if there has ever been anyone to make fun of him?
Only Lou Reed makes fun of Lou Reed. Cause he knows him best.
Lester bangs
they can try, but they always.....always lost.
@@andrewaronson3364 Lester Bangs... I will check that out...
@@TheGuyMullins they were practically arch nemesis. Lou reed said journalists were the lowest form of life, and Lester bangs, a rock critic, was a champion of Lou's work with VU, though he was known to think Lou himself was a prick and talked a lot of shit about him in writing
I'm not a polyslav
Yet it was Lou who folded and wouldn't sing "and the colored girls"... repeat the question if yer not gonna mic the audience-geez!
"he may very well be, the american artist" such disdain. of course "the king of NY" would be feel that way.
Andy warhol here
Acknowledgement afridah hossain
There are 2 afridahs
I agree afridah does sound like a re in carnated afridah hossain
I absolutely adore him, but... I can't stand Warhol and Burroughs. I *used* to like them, a little. Andy Warhol started something very interesting, and a lot of people wouldn't be around if it weren't for him, but then, maybe Valerie Solanas wasn't altogether...unreasonable. At any rate: Burroughs wrote about one and a half valuable things. And then he beat that shit into the ground...
But Lou Reed, man, he's gonna get me through some hard days to come.
I think.
Afridah hossain had to live through i andy warhol hadnt
