Lou Reed‘s 1974 live album.
The album is not only a bitch, it’s one of the best live
albums ever in my best-live-albums-ever book.

LIVE KICK OF THE DAY – Sweet LOU In Paris 1974
One live track a day keeps the doctor away
17 September 2022
Artist: LOU REED
(March 2, 1942 – October 27, 2013)
Song: SWEET JANE
Reed wrote this classic for the 4th Velvet Underground LP LOADED (1970)
4 years later a smoking live version appeared on his legendary live LP
Rock ‘n’ Roll Animal (best live album ever to my ears) recorded at a
concert in New York the year before.
This live version comes from a 1974 show in Paris (on his Rock ‘n’ Roll album Tour).
A rare rendition with a totally different (long) intro than on the live LP. A pretty weird
jazzy/bluesy one until Reed decides to come up front and start Sweet Jane.
Sweet Lou…
From the same tour this, at times, hilarious
interview with Australian journalists.
