Lou Reed - Live In Cleveland 1978
Jobe notes: Lou's Arista years were not his best. Sadly when you go to listen
to Lou, the first things you're not gonna reach for are "The Bells" or
"Growing Up In Public" However we did get one masterpiece during
this time "Street Hassle" Which brings us to the point where you come in.
Apparently the live songs on "Street Hassle" "Gimmie Some Good Times,
Leave Me Alone, Shooting Star and Wait" were recorded on April 24th in
Ludwigshafen, with Wait being recorded in Munich (I don't know the date
of this one) I find it very hard to believe that these songs were recorded at
these shows seeing as how the bootlegs I can find of these cuts sound like shit,
unless there are soundboard recordings of these songs floating around
somewhere I can't find. The songs on "Street Hassle" are definite soundboards.
So do you the Lou Reed connoisseur know of where these song exsist,
and what show's they are from. Can you help me locate the shows where
these live "Street Hassle" songs were recorded?
(contact him through the usual places)
