This comprehensive book delves into the remarkable artistic journey of Lou Reed during the first decade and a half of his solo career. It is tempting to paint these years with a broad brush, as the lingering influence of The Velvet Underground gradually gained cultural prominence, both tethering and liberating its key participant. Between 1972 and 1986, Lou Reed embarked on a quest for professional success, facing triumphs, setbacks, rejections, laments, and renewed desires. While this book prioritizes a focus on the music, it is impossible to separate the personal from the artistic output of such a unique artist. We witness a tentative and crestfallen Lou emerging from his parental cocoon in Long Island, New York, to explore the waters of a solo career. Along the way, he experiences worldwide stardom and immense success, followed by periods of banishment and the embracement and rejection of various commercial ventures. Throughout his midlife, Lou undergoes a profound revision and rejuvenation, accumulating multiple partners of influence, both professional and personal, who leave lasting imprints on his artistic journey.
Lou Reed's fourteen-year odyssey is merely a fraction of the full story, reflecting just half of his remarkable accomplishments. His artistic evolution, marked by experimentation, resilience, and a relentless pursuit of creativity, continues to captivate and inspire audiences worldwide. This book serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of Lou Reed, a musician who has left an indelible mark on the music industry and beyond.
