Synopsis

Album Description
Whether you see Lou Reed as the Godfather of Punk, a Dylan refractor, a cross-dressing provocateur, or an earnest missionary for the cause of literate rock music, you can't deny his influence. Reed's career as one of the most influential songwriters in rock spans more than 35 years, from his seminal role in the Velvet Underground through his reinventions as glam jester, hardcore pre-punk, lovestruck Romeo, and, finally, acerbic rock 'n' roll survivor. Through it all, Reed has towered over most of his contemporaries, redefining the boundaries and potential of rock composition. 'After Hours' puts Reed's career in the perspective of fellow artists who count him as an influence in their work.
 

CD Reviews

The Ultimate Tribute to Lou
04/19/2003
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Truly inspired renditions of well known and lesser known Lou Reed tunes. An obvious a labor of love. 'Satellite of Love', 'Vicious', 'How Do You Think It Feels' and 'Sunday Morning' are standouts!"
