Live In Italy is an album by Lou Reed recorded live over two nights in September 1983 (on the 7th in Verona and on the 10th, at the ruins of Circus Maximus, in Rome) using the Rolling Stones Mobile Unit. It was issued on vinyl only in Germany, the United Kingdom and Japan. At the time, Reed and his band were on a world tour to promote the album Legendary Hearts. A live video, A Night with Lou Reed, filmed at a New York concert, was also released to coincide with the album. The video omitted the songs "Betrayed", "Sally Can't Dance", "Average Guy" and "Some Kinda Love"/"Sister Ray" from the 10th show, while adding "Don't Talk to Me About Work", "Women", "Turn Out the Light" and "New Age" from the 7th. In 1996, the album was reissued under the title Live in Concert.
LOU REED ARRIVA IN ITALIA QUESTA volta non si risparmia: Lou Reed, il grande musicista rock americano, farà in Italia ben sei concerti, a dispetto del suo rapporto con il pubblico che con il passare degli anni diventa sempre più difficile. Il tour italiano di Reed sarà il primo di un lungo giro europeo nel corso del quale presenterà ' Magic and Loss' il nuovo album. Sarà un tour teatrale: il 23 e il 24 gennaio Lou Reed sarà all' Orfeo di Milano, il 26 allo Storchi di Modena, il 27 al Sistina di Roma, il 29 al Palazzo dei Congressi di Bologna e il 30 al Nuovo di Torino.
