Lou Reed 1983 - Back To Back - #1: In 1980, Lou reed stopped touring for almost 3 years, spending time instead in the studio working on 2 albums, The Blue Mask and Legendary Hearts.  While neither cracked the top 150 on the Billboard charts, both received rave critical reviews, with the Robert Christgau, for example, giving each an ‘A' rating. Reed finally returned to the stage in early 1983, touring in support of both discs.  As part of that tour, he played 4 dates at the legendary Bottom Line nightclub in New York in late February/early March 1983, performing 2 shows each night.  Tickets were just $12.50. This soundboard recording captures the soundcheck and early show from the opening night of the run, on February 25, 1983, 
43 years ago today.  Download this one, then  for part 2 of this Back To Back set. below
