🎼2 March, 1942 Lou Reed was born in New York City. "Not a great singer, not a great guitarist" but for sure one of the greatest ARTISTS of the 20th Century!
Here's a rare photo of him in Venice when he came to play at #TeatroMalibran, the ancient house of #MarcoPolo, near #Rialto bridge: it was in 2002 and half of the audience left the concert because it was too loud, cacophonic, violent and senseless🙉🤯😱... maybe some of them were unaware that he was about to play his 1975 album "Metal Machine Music" in its entirety... the album was withdrawn from the market by his record company at the time, because it was just made of "noises" and guitar distortions...
In the Chat Room👇 I post 1 of my favorite #LouReed songs and 1 of my favorite #VelvetUnderground songs 🎸🎸 You can post yours! 😃🤟

📌12 March 1967.
📀 55 years ago Velvet Underground & Nico, produced by #AndyWarhol, was released.
It was almost ignored at the time in #USA and worldwide, perhaps considered too weird and experimental and it sold just 30,000 copies.
It's always hard to recommend to your friends a rock album, there are so many in history and so many genres and subgenres... so I let #BrianEno (one of the greatest music geniuses of the XX century) speak, when interviewed about #VelvetUnderground: "Everyone who bought one of those 30,000 copies started a band."
Quite a recommendation...👍
This album is still today considered one of the most important records in Rock #MusicHistory ! 🤟🎸

"Here he comes, he's all dressed in black
He's never early, he's always late
First thing you learn is that you always gotta wait
I'm waiting for my man"
