SurprisingBy Verbena ReverbSurprisingly Fabulous. Who is this writer? Excellent view into one of the first real alternative artists, Lou Reed. Interestingly, he actually comes off as quite ill mentally. Spiritually confused or maimed, you could say. Yet a phenomenal artist, so surprisingly delicate at times, so brutal most of the time. Complicated man, excellent biographer.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Reed this Lou book.By Shamea C.I wasn't born during the 1970s...but it's greatly appreciated that Lou Reed's legacy still lives on. I bought the full e-book soon after because I wanted to learn more about someone I deeply admire. Reed has shaped everything from how I write, and then some. ROCK IN POWER, LOU REED!8 of 10 people found the following review helpful. A Bit of a Rehash and a Final CodaBy CkayI read this Lou Reed bio by Bockris when it first came out in the 90's. Reed absolutely hated it, probably because it cut close to the bone and forced issues he didn't want revealed then as he was self positioned as a middle aged normal average guy. Bockris was a Warhol insider, so betrayal was the worst of capital offenses et al. Now that the master of street idiom has passed through fire to his next plane, Bockris has updated the original, fleshed out and amended the older information and taken it up to and including Lou's passing. I've followed the Velvet's story and Reed's solo career for over 40 years, and for the most part, when this read sticks to events and interviews it is enlightening for the fan. Probably too hairy for the casual weekender on his own though, and makes proof that Lou Reed was an emotionally stunted insecure prick. No new revelations there. Where Bockris loses me is when he extrapolated the last 10 years of Laurie Anderson/Lou Reed albums as letters to each other. Only partially, as Reed mixed autobiography with fiction throughout his career. For instance, I'm pretty sure that a good part of Reed's Ecstasy album addressed the failed marriage to Sylvia Morales (she wanted kids, the arrested adolescent Reed obviously did not- songsBaton Rouge Tatters) and not the relationship with Anderson. That came with Set The Twilight Reeling, which dealt with the ups and downs, the separations due to tours, his need to become "the newfound man, and set the twilight reeling". No matter, Bockris is sympathetic, a long time fan, and curates the 50 year roller coaster of The Imp of the Perverse in fair detail. I just read a blog post released today by Lou's sister Merrill (nee Elizabeth Reed) that clears up the details surrounding Lou's teenage electro shock treatments (brutal), and that he most definitely suffered early on. She tells for the first time in her words a very humanizing, touching, sad family story that solidifies my long standing belief that there was a lifetime of fragility about Lou Reed, much of it hides below the rage in his music. His family loved him, they didn't abandon him. At any rate, he stood for those who had no voice, the disenfranchised, those desperate at end, and I miss his presence in the world. Like Warhol in art, it will take a while for people to figure it out just how rare a musical literary genius he was. ‘A triumph’ - Time OutTransformer is the only complete and comprehensive telling of the Lou Reed story.Legendary songwriter and guitarist Lou Reed passed away on the 27th October 2013, but his musical influence is assured. Now discover the true story of the Velvet Underground pioneer in this update of Bockris’s classic biography.Transformer: The Complete Lou Reed Story follows the great songwriter and singer through the series of transformations that define each period of his fifty year career. It opens with the teenage electroshock treatments that dominated his memories of childhood and never stops revealing layer after layer of this complex and often anguished artist and man. Transformer is based on Lou’s collaborations with the hardest and most romantic artists of his times, from John Cale, Andy Warhol, and Nico, through David Bowie, Robert Wilson, Laurie Anderson and the ghost of Edgar Alan Poe. Rippling underneath everything he did are Lou’s relationships with his various muses, from his college sweetheart to his three wives (and one drag queen).Leading Lou Reed biographer, Victor Bockris - who knew Lou throughout the Rachel Years, from Rock ‘n’ Roll Animal to the Bells - updates his original biography in the wake of Lou’s death. Through new interviews and photos, he reveals the many transformations of this larger-than-life character, including his final shift from Rock Monster to the Prince Charming he had always wanted to be in the twenty years he spent with the love of his life, Laurie Anderson . Except with Lou, you could never really know what might happen next…Including previously unseen photographs and contributions from Lou’s innermost circle and collaborators that include similarly esteemed artists such as Andy Warhol and David Bowie, Transformer is as captivating and vivid a read as befits an American master. “Bockris’s new work is instantly recognizable as the heavyweight psychological powerplay Lou Reed’s legend deserves…Reed is effectively pinned like a butterfly” – Q Magazine“Transformer depicts the singer’s life as a series of death-defying second acts” – New York Times Book “A very readable portrait…Blending informed biographical narrative with abundant quotes and a dishy, conversational style, Bockris captures the many moods – and mood swings – of a true rock and roll chameleon” – Entertainment Weekly“Transformer is an even more staggering brief than Wired (about John Belushi)” – Spin“Bockris provides insight into the private life that led Reed to create many of rock’s memorable songs, including “Heroin” and “Walk on the Wild Side” – Publishers Weekly“One of the funniest and most memorable time-lined rock documents around” – Philadelphia City PaperAbout the AuthorVictor Bockris has written a dozen books which form a mythology for the counterculture. His biographies of Andy Warhol, Keith Richards and Lou Reed made his name as the Poet Laureate of the New York Underground. His most recent books are: The Burroughs-Warhol Affair; and Burroughs Reloaded (photographs). The updated Transformer: The Lou Reed Story focuses on Reed’s relationship and marriage to the leading performance artist of our times Laurie Anderson. It celebrates the deep influence these two artists had on each others work during the last 20 years of Lou Reed’s life. Lou and Laurie both produced some of the greatest work they had ever done during this period [PUkCz.ebook] Transformer: The Complete Lou Reed Story: Free Sampler By Victor Bockris PDF [PUkCz.ebook] Transformer: The Complete Lou Reed Story: Free Sampler By Victor Bockris Epub [PUkCz.ebook] Transformer: The Complete Lou Reed Story: Free Sampler By Victor Bockris Ebook [PUkCz.ebook] Transformer: The Complete Lou Reed Story: Free Sampler By Victor Bockris Rar [PUkCz.ebook] Transformer: The Complete Lou Reed Story: Free Sampler By Victor Bockris Zip [PUkCz.ebook] Transformer: The Complete Lou Reed Story: Free Sampler By Victor Bockris Read Online.

  • Hace Cuatro Años, Lou Reed Se Fue Caminando Tranquilo Por El Lado Salvaje
    Hace cuatro años, Lou Reed se fue caminando tranquilo por el lado salvaje Cerebro y motor de Velvet Underground , agrupación estadounidense que influyó a cuanta vanguardia contracultural se levantara por la música de Occidente desde fines de los años 60, Lou Reed estuvo siempre allá arriba. A los 71 años dejó este mundo un día 27 de octubre de 2013, yéndose tranquilo, caminando por ese lado de la vía que siempre le atrajo. Generalmente incomprendido, aunque siempre respetado, el músico colaboró permanentemente a la cultura de darle el beneficio a la duda a todo lo que se moviera. Con la muerte del destacado artista se fueron casi cincuenta años de música rock, industria en la que el compositor y guitarrista influyó enormemente. Foto original de Guido Harari. Con una carrera que compartió con igual intensidad talento con excesos, Reed había optado en la última década por una vida más ordenada y tranquila. A pesar de eso, la salud cobraba sus cuentas y en mayo del 2013 se sometió a un complejo transplante de hígado, del cual -al parecer- nunca quedó bien, según la revista musical estadounidense Rolling Stone. Casado durante muchos años con la cantante y artista visual Laurie Anderson, Reed tuvo que enfrentar el último tiempo con un permanente deterioro de su salud. Nacido y criado en Brooklyn , sus primeros pasos en el mundo de la música van de la mano del artista Andy Warhol y su activa Factory de los prolíficos años 60. Su álbum debut, el que pasó a calidad de clásico también por su portada hecha por el propio Warhol en la que sólo aparece un plátano, incluye verdaderos clásicos como “Heroin”.

  • Make Them Vomit« Heroin Von the Velvet Underground
    Z Literaturwiss Linguistik (2016) 46:183–200 DOI 10.1007/s41244-016-0013-7 THEMENBEITRAG »Make them vomit« Heroin von The Velvet Underground Gerhard Kaiser Online publiziert: 19. Juli 2016 © J.B. Metzler Verlag GmbH, Stuttgart 2016 Zusammenfassung Der Beitrag schlägt eine ›dichte Beschreibung‹ des Songs He- roin vor, der auf dem ersten Album von The Velvet Underground im Jahr 1967 erschien. Meine These lautet, dass Heroin – vor dem Hintergrund der pop-histori- schen Umwälzungen in der zweiten Hälfte der 1960er Jahre, die man als eine ›Sattel- zeit‹ der Popmusik ansehen kann – aus einem dreifachen Prozess der ›Verkunstung‹ resultiert, der auf verschiedenen Typen von Konventionsverletzung beruht. Diese betreffen die konventionellen Regeln der Verpackung (Andy Warhols Bananenco- ver), ebenso textliche (die ebenso neutrale wie pointiert literarische Darstellung des Drogenkonsums) und musikalische Konventionen (J. Cales dissonante Viola-Per- formance und M. Tuckers ebenso dilettantisches wie geniales Schlagzeug), die in ihrer Kombination eine jener provokanten Grenzüberschreitungen ergeben, welche die Grammatik und Semantik der populären Musik nachhaltig verändert haben. Da- rüber hinaus besitzt das Ende des Stückes einen jener seltenen Momente, der sich, unter Bezug auf die Arbeiten von Roland Barthes und des Pop-Theoretikers Diedrich Diederichsen, als ›punctum‹ bezeichnen lässt. Schlüsselwörter Popkultur · Dichte Beschreibung · Pop Art · Punktum · Performance »Make them vomit« Heroin by The Velvet Underground Abstract The article offers a »thick description« of the song Heroin, which ap- peared on the first album of The Velvet Underground in 1967.
