Lou Reed - Magic And Loss Live w/ John Zorn 05/05/2008 Highline Ballroom, NYC 

This song helped me through a painful relationship break up 30 years ago. Now its stuck in my head again. What an incredible piece of poetry! This version is awesome.

People used to ask what I saw in Lou, my answer was "nothing, but I hear everything ".

No words for this,incredible, amazing,wonderful,astonishing…

This is a gem. Thank you so much for sharing. (...plus I think I fell in love with Tony. Again. WHAT A DRUMMER!!!! Sheer taste & elegance.)

One of the best moments in Lou's last years. Reminds me of sister ray with the same quality.

presencia ,bendita presencia !!! es estilo ,es grandeza !!! desde Tenerife ,Spain te amamos

Please moreee from this concert! it's incredible!

LOVE that guitar tone during the solo.

Oooh, that saxophone thrown in the mix. Great stuff.

Great music, great performance. Love that snare sound.

That ad in the middle of the solo is sacrilege

I was there

wow! i cranked it and i'm on round 3.

This is the Metal Machine no wave noise rock version...... Brilliant!

Would love to hear Zorn playing Waves of Fear with this band.

Slow it to .75 speed and it really brings out nuances and even more, just how great this is.

Fantastic thanks lou ❤

Was there

Wow, what a wondrous version.

man, that's what it's all about.

One of his lasts pieces of life music, for the musicians under us it would be so good to be inspired by this complete concert and others or was it really his last? For the rest of humanity who can not play or sing, it's important to have the cure of this compositions.

Fuck. I started to cry when he gave a hug to Zorn.

Master piece❤

Awesome upload, thank you

Damn that's awesome. Did Zorn play the whole show or just this song? And no mention that Hunter is playing!? Holy cow the talent on that stage. Can the whole show be found anywhere? I can't imagine Zorn and Hunter playing on all the previous songs, or the encores. Please where is this show?

One of the few times a saxophone player worked perfectly with Lou.

very high level

My 2nd fave Lou album ( Animal #1) Of course it helps when you've had cancer! - Wait what did i just say???

Electricity. At 9:55, I thought I was witnessing an exorcism.

"Guardian Angel" from this show? Please

What else? no else

Ich habe leider Lou Reed damals in München im Gasteig erlebt, aber nicht im Jahr 2008, sondern eher im Jahr 2005, er kam alleine, entschuldigte sich dafür, und spielte alleine im Parka. Wir waren circa zu dritt. Von oben kam uns eine Mannschaft von Schutzeinheiten entgegen, die eine fragte mich - haben Sie keine Sitzkarte? Auf meine Antwort - doch - kamen dann noch viele weitere Bedienstete, währenddessen spielte Lou sein Album Magic and loss. Ich wurde gefragt, ob ich mich denn nicht setzen wolle, auf meine Antwort - nein! - kamen noch so viele mehr. Und sie versuchten, mich umzustimmenm bis ich ihnen sagte: ich habe hier eine Eintrittskarte -also - was los??? Dann torkelte ein langhaariger Besoffener uns vorbei die Trittstufen des Gasteig herunter, - und ich beneidete ihn. Endlich mal einer, der lebte. Der das fühlte, hier, in diesem scheißkalten Tempel der Kunst. Und Lou sang dazu unentwegt weiter sein Album magic and loss. Im Parka. Tjo, in diesem scheißkalten Tempel der Kunst, dem Gasteig in München, haben wir trotzdem diese Musik genossen, danke Dir Lou. Daß mich zuvor wahrscheinlich eine kleine Spinne beim Warten in die Hand biß - sei hiermit vergeben, Dir, München. Roland ;-) lange her, so etwa 16 Jahre

This is Far Out

What a incredible song

i use earplugs, god sound

I swear I'm ready to vomit🤮 that's just how sick this tune is 😆😆😆😆

I don't really understand the goodness of this drummer that Lou Reed continued to use in later years.
