109. Lou Reed: Transformer (1972)

This week's episode is more than meets the eye when we become the best podcast about Lou Reed and the 109th greatest album of all time, Transformer. Seriously this episode is really good...somewhere.   But before we talk about the album, the first half of this podcast is a real vibe check when we discuss the new Roc Marciano album, electric toothbrushes, and why squirrels are splooting. We also take a wine flight tonight and discuss the best wineries in Minnesota. We don't tell you what tannins are but we make sure you know you can't go across the water unless you have power.    Then at (46:00) we just keep you hanging on when we talk about Lou Reed's second solo studio album, Transformer. These four blokes discuss Lou Reed's distinct voice, David Bowie and Mick Ronson's influence on this album, and the best songs featuring the recorder. We also become the best royal family podcast when we celebrate British musicians and their connections with the crown.   Call or text 802 277 BECK.  Don't be a brat!

If we can get "ROSIE LOVES FEET" to be something that is searchable online, I feel like this will all be worth it.  The store is back up!
