Regarding Lulu

Regarding Lulu

12 years ago, Lou Reed released his last recorded work: a collaboration album with Metallica called Lulu. It was widely panned by critics--and everyone else--almost immediately. Was the disdain deserved? Join us as we revisit the entire work, track-by-track, from the perspective of two musicians. One is a fan of Metallica; one is a fan of Lou Reed. One has heard Lulu; one has never heard it. Join us on a bloody journey of discovery. Has Lulu passed the test of time? Is it in fact a masterpiece or a major piece? We'll see... Hosted by Chaz Charles and Greg "Wolfie" Wolfe. Join us bi-weekly.

Chaz & Wolfie are all in on this track off the 2001 album Lulu by Lou Reed and Metallica. Being hep to the Lulu plays that were Lou Reed's source inspiration, our co-hosts think they've figured out the character portrait of Little Dog. And while they're probably right, we also know there's a lot more going on in these lyrics than is immediately identifiable. So hike up your shorts, do the Chicken Wing dance, gra...

Wolfie & Chaz listen to all 11:26 of Cheat On Me, the 6th track off Lulu, the 2011 album by Lou Reed and Metallica. This marks "hump-episode" plus one, in that we've cleared the halfway mark in listening to the album track-by-bloody-track. This cut left our hosts in awe of their own ability to not run screaming from this assignment. If ever there was an episode to skip, this is it. What a stinker! Wow - we wouldn&...

This episode finds Wolfie and Chaz on track number 4, Mistress Dread, from Lulu, the 2011 album by Lou Reed and Metallica. It would be a lie to say this song didn’t leave our co-hosts feeling an urgent need to get clean as soon as the last note faded. Join us for what can only be described as an “aural incident”, on a very indecent episode. And if you like the podcast, please leave us a review to help us grow!!
