LOU REED
Ecstacy (Reprise)

Reviewed by John Sekerka



Hey Lou's singing again! Good news that, cuz that narrative drawl was becoming a tad tiresome. As always, Lou has plenty to say, and few do it as eloquently and powerfully. The bonus this time around is the excellent musical accompaniment. And as always, Lou includes a grating bit of self-indulgence just to piss us off ("Like a Possum"). This is why programmable CD players were invented.
