I'm a young Italian girl, I usually buy on ebay: sometimes I buy CD of artisty that I don't know or don't know very well. Yes, Lou Reed is not a young artist, this is not a debut album. But for me this is the first album I play. So I have an opinion like I have about a new artist/debut album. Sorry - respect for the past - but I didn't like this CD very much. Lou Reed repeats the same music and the full work is a little boring. I only appreciate the song Ecstasy - great interpretation, similar to an actor - but it's not enought to have a positive impressione about all the album.
A classic Lou Reed. I missed this one. Always some extra insight. So far, I prefer it to Metal Machine Music. It makes me think of the time I took the wrong Rockaway train twice in a row.

I must confess that this one took several listens before it started to grow on me. This is not for people with a short attention span who like a two minute pop song. Track 12: Like A Possum, is 18 minutes long. Throughout the album the music could be considered repetitive as it plods along. The lyrics are graphic, sexual, strange and depressing. Sound like a negative review? Not at all. This is Lou Reed at his finest. 5 Stars.
