1970s - #5: In 1978, in the midst of the punk rock revolution he helped inspire, Lou Reed released the album Street Hassle, a disc described as raw, wounded and unapologetic. Most of the early punk records could have been described in the same terms. Yet, at the time, Reed had little if any use for the punk scene. He was quoted as saying "I'm too literate to be into punk rock ... The whole CBGB's, new Max's thing that every one's into and what's going on in London—you don't seriously think I'm responsible for what's mostly rubbish?" Reed's comments show just how splintered rock and roll had become as the decade of the 1970s wound to a close.month This soundbaord recording captures Lou during the Street Hassle tour on April 14, 1978, 46 years ago today, at the Park West in Chicago.
