Lou Reed - Transformer LP (RSD Essential 50th Anniversary White Vinyl)

Lou Reed's second solo album Transformer is an album that everyone should own. It was the moment when the seventies poster boy for shock-rock therapy found a balance between unbelievably catchy tunes and proto punk reportage from the gutters of Manhattan. It includes Walk on the Wild Side, Perfect Day and Satellite of Love. It was produced and features David Bowie and Mick Ronson.
