Glad this version happened, acoustic makes it sound like "a hundred years ago"...

Lou Reed RIP your music will live forever. The world will miss you man.

[@thelevelbeyondhuman]

I love Lou's singing in this one.

[@lamper2]

keith said stray cat blues was inspired by listening to this lp to see what all the fuss was about and maybe they could lift something useful from it... mission accomplished!

[@Yeebeans]

Sounds like Lou is trying to keep that surf rock sound that was intended for this song.

[@ggkitchener1122]

Still more like a raga. Mid sixties Psych rock innit

[@az0r22]

I can't get over this version .

[@oclictis1]

Much cuter version of this song, it's weird to see how different it is to the final result

Lou Reed had been listening to The Incredible String Band?

he wrote this song in 1964

[@breakbeat_hardcore]

I'm still looking for this compilation, where can I find it?

[@chadbot0129]

If you want to buy it, I guess order it wherever. But in terms of RUclips, you're probably gonna have to compile all the "home acoustic demos"

[@Puppy_Puppington]

[@eddietasker9110]

Well, it is a demo tbf

[@guillermokersh7270]
