This album which may well be Lou Reed's best live Solo album (thanks a lot to a fabolous bad named The Tots) was recorded on 26th December 1972 and transmitted in a "Saturday Night In Concert" Radio Broadcast in January 1972, which was then re-broadcast in the mid 1980s. It showcases titles from his time with Velvet Underground as well as his later solo hits, but above all, it presents tracks from his most successful album Transformer which was produced by David Bowie and arranged by his epic guitarist Mick Ronson. The Tots at the time were at the top of their form with brilliant ensemble guitar playing and Lou Reed himself receives a rapturous reception from his home town audience.
