Music reviews of Magic and Loss
Music Review: Amazing !!!
Rating: 5 Stars
When this CD came out, I was 21 and I just lost my gramps to lung cancer (DONT SMOKE!). I was a heavt metal, long haired head banger back then. For some reason I bought this CD on one of those CD mailing clubs. I put this in and was transformed musically and spiritually. This CD is amazing and it was like Lou was there with me along the way of my gramps demise. There even lyrics in it that relate exactly to incidents that ocurred during his decline. Anyway, aside from that, the songs on here are great. They are well written and just have tons of feeling in them. You can tell Lou went deep into his heart when he wrote this. This is easily in my Top 10 CD list. Rock on!
Description of Magic and Loss
After spending a good many years searching for his main line, Lou Reed tapped into a fresh vein of creativity with 1989's New York and Songs for Drella, a tribute to Andy Warhol made with his former Velvet Underground partner John Cale. With two friends suffering from cancer--one being songwriter Doc Pomus--Reed went to work on his most soul-searching effort to date. The rollicking opening cut, "What's Good," suggests he found the rock & roll heart in such tragedy, but once the supple rhythm section is supplanted by a slow, time-checking click, the reality of death's ominous shadow casts a doom and gloom on the proceedings. The result is an extremely grim, yet fascinating, song cycle. --Rob O'ConnorGeneral CDs
