163. DJ Alix Brown on Lou Reed's 'Transformer' (1972)

DJ, serial band member (from the Angry Angles to Roya and many many more), stylist and quintessential New York transplant Alix Brown invites me into her NYC home for a conversation about the quintessential New York album (recorded in London) - Lou Reed's 1972 'Transformer'.

We talk about how Reed working with producer David Bowie was the culmination of a transatlantic tennis match the Velvet Underground had started in the 60s, why Alix avoided meeting Lou Reed in person, whether there's any of Lou Reed's New York left today, Alix's abandoned VU cover project and working with Mick Rock (who shot the Transformer album cover) soon after Reed's death.

My Favorite Album is a podcast unpacking the great works of pop music. Each episode features a different songwriter or musician discussing their favorite album of all time - their history with it, the making of the album, individual songs and the album's influence on their own music.
