The day after Christmas, December of 1972: Lou Reed and band (The Tots) in Hempstead, NY, recording live for radio at Untrasonic Recording Studio. Recorded just a month after the release of Transformer, the set finds Reed pulling from the new record, riffing on five Velvets tracks and the penultimate “Berlin” – the track that would title his next release six months later.


The Tots were:

  • Vinny Laporta – guitar
  • Eddie Reynolds – guitar, backing vocals
  • Bobby Resigno – bass guitar
  • Scottie Clark – drums

note not the band from 'Rock 'n' Roll Animal' as some report [Steve Hunter, Prakash John. Pentti Glan et al]]

of course spotted that this is an official release so didn't want to imply otherwise and is available here
