Vicious / Walk On The Wild Side

Originally released on RCA 0054. This is a beautiful copy of the red-label RCA Gold Standard reissue of two classic Lou Reed tracks from his second post-Underground LP, "Transformer." The album, produced by David Bowie and Mick Ronson, brought Reed his only big commercial success, thanks to the hit, "Walk On The Wild Side," but also adoration from critics, thanks to non-hit singles like "Vicious" and the classic "Satellite of Love." Sadly, this reissue is almost as rarely seen as the original 45s themselves.
