Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
At the time of his death in 2013, Lou Reed was the closest thing rock 'n' roll had to a living legend. His band The Velvet Underground-one of the most influential groups of all time-transformed rock 'n' roll forever, and his solo work over the next forty years would define, refine, and reshape glam rock, noise rock, and instrumental music.
These conversations capture Reed over the entire span of his career, including his final inteview. And they show as well, Reed's vision of himself as a poet and a writer. His albums, he said, added up to the great American novel.
A new series of pocket-sized interview collections, featuring conversations with some of the iconic writers and thinkers of our time.
