Lou Reed - The Roxy Theatre 1976 | From The Boss at Floppy Boot Stomp!


Lou Reed - The Roxy Theatre 
Los Angeles, California
December 1, 1976 

aka - Claim 2 Fame Bootleg



SILENT WAY Says : "* As to make the recording more complete, I have included the Coney Island Baby track from another version of this show that was uploaded to DIME recently. The track is taken from an inferior FM source and is noticeably lower in sound quality. It's certainly worth including though as it's not included on the primary source used 

I hope some of you searching for this boot...it´s not the rarest thing
but it is pure dynamite, from the audio (9.75/10) & the performance one
of my favourite Lou shows in the mid 70´s. Very Jazzy/Funky stuff.
Don Cherry pushed up the Line up. He´s not listed on the Cover but
he´s definitly on Stage,listen in the middle of waiting for my man
and you know what i mean. The Same in the middle of "kicks" and
sheltered life and and and...
