What do you mean Lou had nothing to do with the band? Prakash John and Pentti “Whitey” Glan play on Rock 'n' Roll Animal (recorded on December 1973), and the four of them would be part of Sally can't dance recording personnel
HOLY SHIT, someone finally uploaded a cleaner version of this performance!!! Thank you so much, it's literally my favorite rendition of Sweet Jane ever.
Glad you found and enjoyed it, I actually have a better copy, which I found stashed away in my tape collection long after I had uploaded this version. Perhaps one day, I might upload it
@@ScottishTeeVee Now thats the ultimate tease!! I actually think the live album release of Rock 'n Roll Animal has the best versions of all the songs on it ive heard. Though i must admint, i probably havent heard more than a couple of versions of some song. But i f*cken love that live album. The guitars.........
Lol loser yes he did, many of his albums in fact 90 percent are shite boy, you better learn and fast or I’ll whoop you , I’m old school RU-vid fuck ya I’m old house, Seacrest !!!
Amazing performance. Always cool to hear "Lady Day" from near when Berlin came out. Somehow this band turns "Vicious" into "Magic Carpet Ride." About as animated as you'll ever see Lou.
I’ve seem the intro and Sweet Jane before but didn’t know that more footage existed. Lou Reed in rock n’roll animal mode, backed by tight funk band rocking in full on 70’s porn star mode. Great upload!
My favorite thing about videos of this performance is that a lot of people come looking for video of the radio-famous live recording of Sweet Jane off Rock n Roll Animal, but end up leaving comments saying "at least I learned who Prakash John is from watching this".
Lou Reed and David Bowie were really two aliens.. they invented the aesthetic of the future.. what we are still living in terms of fashion is here in this video.. Ten years before people start to understand and at least twenty years before it becomes a mass phenomenon
Saw this tour in 1974 - what a wild show. Great band! He was still simulating shooting up during Heroin on this tour. I was standing at the left front of the stage at the Agora Theater, Columbus, Ohio. The next time I saw him - same club - April 1978 - stood in front of the stage and got a bunch of great black and white and color slide photos. Wish I could've gotten some of this band.
Thank's Scottish Tee Vee, Lou Reed was a phenomenal singer. Patty Smith & he were the King & Queen of New York for awhile! MC 5 were in there too. Jim Carroll's friends 🧡
Thank you Scottish TeeVee - great footage!! I never stop missing Lou Reed. I've been a fan of Lou forever! Grateful for all the endless hours of music Lou produced throughout his life for us to enjoy! RIP Lou!!!
What a performance....Legendary moments...the music was better and not only because we were young...who can deliver that intensity and meaning today? rap? you're kiddind...
The powers that be are almost seemingly trying to kill actual music with the huge promotion of C(rap) in the last 20+ yrs it is beyond sad how most of all the music legends are dying off and yea there is a cash grab farewell tour with half of the original lineup, tickets are $90 at the box office for nose bleed seats, that is available if you are into that sort of thing..IDK im grateful to have been born in 69 so I did have a few years to have actual music be the norm..but the present day is pretty sad
Whatta great performance and the guys do not even no each other so well. Guitar Danny Weiss and Prakesh John badass, love it also the energy this organ player bring in. Band rocks marvelous and Lou enjoyes it. Me too Thanks for footage greets from the Netherlands RIP Lou Reed and ThX so much
I like how Lou always changes his songes. Like every couple of years he played his songs entirely different. Hear this version of Waiting for the man. It’s so different than the original. A real artist, always searching for new ways. I saw him live once, a year before he passed away, and I’m glad I did. It was great.
Saw Lou on the same tour, at the Hammersmith Odeon. No friends would come with me so I sat nervous, and 17 years of age in the circle, while a couple sitting next to me shared a BOX OF CHOCOLATES during "Heroin"!!!! (That was the bit when Lou faked shooting up) Hmm, a defining moment...
I always liked the Sally Can't Dance band. Danny Weis on lead with holdovers Whitey Glan and Prakash John surviving Lou's band at least for this tour in 1974. The Hunter/Wagner band from 1973 absolutely kicked ass but you just knew, Lou Reed would never allow himself to be upstaged again.
Bueno, más geniales no sé, pero ahí había bandas completamente increíbles, como Deep Purple (que dos años antes habían publicado el más grande doble directo de la historia del Rock, en Japon), Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Jethro Tull, Rush... Son diferentes rollos, pero igual de alucinantes.
que de souvenirs!! j'avais 21 ans, maintenant j'en ais 68!! que de soirèes à ècouter cet album!!bons moments ! mais j'ècoute toujours plein de musiques mais plus du jazz,mais je reviens souvent au rock!!il y a pas de différence ,quand c'est bon ,c'est bon!!la musique m'aide a vieillir et temps mieux!!moi ça a toujours été important la musique,j'ai du mal à comprendre comment on peux passer à coté de ç'est moments réjouissants!! RIP LOU.
je suis cent pour cent d'accord, il y du bon danns tous les styles !!! et comment ce passer de ces moments, puisqu'ils existent ... lou reed , iggy , bowie , hendrix mais ausi , django , miles davis , et fela !!! la liste est longue , music is the best comme disait zappa !!!!!!
Bonjour, j'avais 24 ans a cette époque, combien des fois ai- je écoute cette musique et bien d'autres dans ces années, je suis un peu plus âgé...., Mais ces musiques ont, font et feront toujours partie de ma vie, je suis à fond sur des choses différentes, ( Melvins, Lunachicks, Babes /Toyland, Queen Adreena...), vous voyez, différent, mais l'esprit du rock me permet de ne pas sentir les années, et je n'oublierai jamais ces moments intemporels. Merci, ❤️👍.
Nice this show was refreshing LouReed turned a lot of heads,He was a ruler like a God You know when Stars like David Bowie openly says Lou Reed is to me my daily fixs and looks at you excited like, that feeling is special Lou Reed was a New Yorker in a lot of ways New York ran through lou,s veins like all the back streets becoming one and fading away into the dark to be some one free or just a dude looking to score. Hey a hi to the velvets Reeds work was really a sign of the times When life was okay to be a little different. Rock n Roll was my favorite track Lou Reed was at his best live, he loved to work the crowds as he did very true to his songs Greatly Missed.
I probly commented here already but at 13 years old this show did the necessary to send me off in the direction which became the way I always knew my life was destined. LOU played in Edinburgh Scotland about 10 days before this film / next time i saw him in 76 at The New Victoria in London was nothin in comparison! The Sally Cant Dance Tour was by a long shot the "one" to catch!!!! 👽☠😈 ps / I worked on both nites of the Velvets reunion in Edinburgh in the 90s //// 74 still Rules!!!! 👽☠😈
Excellent.. I loved back in the days when musicians played music for themselves. You either liked it or not. They weren't playing just to please people for a paycheck like most now days.
One of the coolest performances ever. Great way to open this set, with this absolutely smashing version of “Sweet Jane”! I love how Lou just tossed the lyrics off, in the way that he invented. So good. This lineup of the VU was really solid.
Mr. Reed looks like Bowie when he played the man who fell to earth - also, I have no idea what his trip is, like why did he do that whole thing in the 70s after the velvets - it's like a stage show mixed with a lounge act - he was hanging out with rockstars, probably wanted to be one - but he can't pull it off - I mean it's completely out of character, his charectar - you have to think it's the drugs - probably switched drugs, changed his whole image of himself or something. It looked cool then, but the velvets, and Cale, and Nico did their best stuff in the 70s, Cale dripping of heroine on island records, Nico, well you know Nico. It was like a band fractured and skewed off into all directions doing way different stuff from eachother. Lou Reed was doing Mr. New York. I think the Dolls and Johnny Thunders were so much more cutting edge. And Cale was a genius, Nico a real artist. I dunno, I read about why and still don't get it, the album metal machine music was like what brought me back to him because it's a good noise record. Perhaps a kind of sophisticated punk thing swimming in Bowie and jagger. Just think on the other side of the United States the Grateful Dead were playing Steal your face. In England it was sex and Syd. In South America some crazy Cumbias, in Turkey a new 60s was just starting with a psychidelic revolution. In Chicago an intellectual rock n roll deep cut elaborate fun time bigger, epic. On the radio a whole different thing, like the whole world just got out of Vietnam, came home to brood dirty on lemons and prepare for the 80s plastic and porcelain.
Ce concert a été filmé à l'Ancienne Belgique à Bruxelles. Lou Reed porte un tee-shirt transparent, tandis qu'à l'Olympia , il porte un teeshirt opaque. Je le sais, j'y étais, à Bruxelles. Merci, pour la vidéo.
Whoa. That must have been seriously amazing to be there for that. Both incredible groups/artists in their own right, I mean Genesis who would have thought they'd ever be opener for Lou? That is really lucky you got to see them both together
````The Rock 'n Roll Animal cuts loose, The Beast unbound. None better. Back to the wild. This aint no Disco, aint no Rap or dodgy blues. This is Lou on fire.Burn baby, burn. Set the night on fire! Miss you.
I’ve been on a Lou Reed kick for about a month. I always liked him, but was distracted by The Who. Wish I had seen him. RIP, dear Lou! Thank you so much for this cool video!!!
STANDING ON THE CORNER, SUITCASE IN MY HAND, JACK IS IN HIS CORSET, JANE SHE'S IN HER VEST... WHAT A FANTASTIC TRACK BY "THE LAST ROCK'N"ROLL GENIUS" Atomic rooster Max 66 Italy .
@@lucacocomazzi2918 Devo scrivere maiuscolo perché vedo poco, le lettere del telefonino son troppo piccole, mi sembra di leggere il bugiardino dei prodotti farmaceutici, bro.
I was born late '63, so I'm just guessin', but my guess is that '73-'74 was when rock 'n roll, and prog rock, and blues rock, 50's rock n' nostalgia, Beatles worship, Stones worship, old skool' country all died in a vacuum. They just disappeared. Who knows why? In any case, disco, funk from the east, reggae from Jamaica, the southern 'thang' and a new cheesy country and LA laid back west-coast chilled Linda Rondstad, Eagles, Fleetwood mac vibe was all that counted. Lou Reed, MC5, Iggy Pop, also died in the flood. the only thing new that emerged until punk, was the toxic waste dump of DEVO.
