1	The Velvet Underground & Nico (1969) more music like this by The Velvet Underground add to wishlist see all copies from $7.61! new only from $7.61!
2	New York (1989) more music like this by Lou Reed add to wishlist New York City figured so prominently in Lou Reed's music for so long that it's surprising it took him until 1989 to make an album simply called New York, a set of 14 scenes and sketches that represents the strongest, best-realized set of songs of Reed's solo career. While Reed's 1982 comeback, The Blue Mask, sometimes found him reaching for ... see all copies from $2.11! new only from $7.73!
3	Transformer [Expanded Edition] (1972) more music like this by Lou Reed add to wishlist David Bowie has never been shy about acknowledging his influences, and since the boho decadence and sexual ambiguity of the Velvet Underground's music had a major impact on Bowie's work, it was only fitting that as Ziggy Stardust mania was reaching its peak, Bowie would offer Lou Reed some much needed help with his career, which was stuck in ... see all copies from $7.59! new only from $7.59!
4	Rock N Roll Animal [Bonus Tracks] (1974) more music like this by Lou Reed add to wishlist In 1974, after the commercial disaster of his album Berlin, Lou Reed needed a hit, and Rock N Roll Animal was a rare display of commercial acumen on his part, just the right album at just the right time. Recorded in concert with Reed's crack road band at the peak of their form, Rock N Roll Animal offered a set of his most anthemic songs (most ... see all copies from $8.15! new only from $8.15!
5	Magic and Loss (1992) more music like this by Lou Reed add to wishlist With 1982's The Blue Mask, Lou Reed began approaching more mature and challenging themes in his music, and in 1992, Reed decided it was time to tackle the Most Serious Theme of All -- Death. Reed lost two close friends to cancer within the space of a year, and the experience informed Magic and Loss, a set of 14 songs about loss, illness, and ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $7.73!
6	Sweet Relief: A Benefit for Victoria Williams (1993) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist The shear breadth and diversity of artists gathered for this benefit project, Sweet Relief: A Benefit for Victoria Williams, is a tribute to the affection Victoria Williams' peers had for her. It conveniently also makes for heady listening for any fan of contemporary music. The hard, brittle edges of Soul Asylum ("Summer of Drugs") and Buffalo Tom ... see all copies from $1.99!
7	Walk on the Wild Side: The Best of Lou Reed (1977) more music like this by Lou Reed add to wishlist Walk on the Wild Side: The Best of Lou Reed was the standard record company "hits" compilation surveying Reed's five-year, eight-album sojourn at RCA from 1972 to 1976. Its 11 songs included two from Lou Reed, three from Transformer (among them, of course, this album's title track, Reed's sole chart hit), one from Berlin, two from Rock N Roll ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $6.83!
8	Transformer (1972) more music like this by Lou Reed add to wishlist David Bowie has never been shy about acknowledging his influences, and since the boho decadence and sexual ambiguity of the Velvet Underground's music had a major impact on Bowie's work, it was only fitting that as Ziggy Stardust mania was reaching its peak, Bowie would offer Lou Reed some much needed help with his career, which was stuck in ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $20.69!
9	Loaded (1970) more music like this by The Velvet Underground add to wishlist This does include the original Loaded album, with full-length versions of "Sweet Jane," "Rock & Roll," and "New Age" replacing the earlier edited ones. But that's less than half of the package; the rest of the two-disc, 33-track set is comprised of alternate mixes, alternate takes, and demos of the ten Loaded songs, as well as some songs that the ... see all copies from $6.15! new only from $6.15!
10	Live on Letterman: Music from the Late Show (1997) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist David Letterman's The Late Show always had a long tradition of excellent musical performances -- indeed, it's one of the few places on American network television where live music thrives -- so the question that surrounds the 1997 release of Live on Letterman: Music from the Late Show isn't why, but why did it take so long? There have been enough ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $9.60!
11	Songs for Drella (1990) more music like this by Lou Reed & John Cale add to wishlist John Cale, the co-founder of The Velvet Underground, left the group in 1968 after tensions between himself and Lou Reed became intolerable; neither had much charitable to say about one other after that, and they seemed to share only one significant area of agreement -- they both maintained a great respect and admiration for Andy Warhol, the artist ... see all copies from $6.24! new only from $7.73!
12	1969: Velvet Underground Live, Vol. 2 (1974) more music like this by The Velvet Underground add to wishlist Maureen Tucker once said that one of her greatest regrets about her tenure in the Velvet Underground is that the band didn't record their shows, and while the live tapes that do survive of the group's performances document an extraordinary band, sadly there aren't very many of them. 1969: Velvet Underground Live, a two-record set released in 1974, ... see all copies from $5.99! new only from $6.82!
13	Live: Take No Prisoners (1978) more music like this by Lou Reed add to wishlist "I do Lou Reed better than anybody , so I thought I'd get in on it," Reed says at one point during this double live set, and that seems to sum up the album's theme quite well. Recorded during a week of shows at New York's Bottom Line in 1978, Live: Take No Prisoners presents Lou Reed the Standup Comic, doing schtick on Patti Smith ("Fck Radio ... see all copies* from $10.99! new only from $10.99!
14	Loaded [Fully Loaded Edition] (1970) more music like this by The Velvet Underground add to wishlist see all copies from $5.49! new only from $9.78!
15	Gold (2005) more music like this by The Velvet Underground add to wishlist At this point in music history, it's become a given that the Velvet Underground were one of the most important and innovative rock bands of their era, and that the four albums they released during their lifespan rank with the most challenging and satisfying work in the rock canon. For beginners and dabblers, though, this invites the question of ... see all copies from $15.16! new only from $15.16!
16	Bootleg Series, Vol. 1: The Quine Tapes (2001) more music like this by The Velvet Underground add to wishlist Bootleg Series, Vol. 1: The Quine Tapes is a three-CD compilation of live performances from the Velvet Underground. This is likewise the first in presumably a series of recordings documenting the band's concert visage throughout their brief history. This volume is derived from the semi-legit and non-professional recordings of Robert Quine (guitar) ... see all copies from $23.99! new only from $23.99!
17	NYC Man: The Ultimate Lou Reed Collection (2004) more music like this by Lou Reed add to wishlist Lou Reed has been the subject of many compilations, one of them being 2003's double-disc, 31-track NYC Man: The Ultimate Lou Reed Collection, which covers everything from the Velvet Underground to 2003's The Raven. It opens up with an unreleased alternate take of "Who Am I" from The Raven, then often substitutes studio cuts with live performances, ... see all copies from $15.32! new only from $15.32!
18	VU (1985) more music like this by The Velvet Underground add to wishlist Composed principally of songs that would have appeared on the Velvet Underground's unreleased fourth MGM album, this is only slightly less impressive than their first three LPs, striking a balance between the searing pre-punk of their first two efforts and the calm eloquence of the third. "Lisa Says," "Ocean," and "Stephanie Says" are some of Lou ... see all copies from $5.99! new only from $5.99!
19	Velvet Underground & Nico [Deluxe Edition] (1969) more music like this by The Velvet Underground add to wishlist The "deluxe edition" of the Velvet Underground's classic debut album is somewhat disappointing in that it fails to offer any previously unreleased material, even as it expands its length from one to two CDs. The key bonus is the inclusion of both the stereo and mono versions of the album, which fill up most of disc one and disc two, respectively. ... see all copies from $21.20! new only from $21.20!
20	1969: Velvet Underground Live, Vol. 1 (1974) more music like this by The Velvet Underground add to wishlist see all copies from $5.99! new only from $5.99!
21	The Very Best of the Velvet Underground (2006) more music like this by The Velvet Underground add to wishlist Since 1990 or so, every few years someone at whatever corporate entity that happens to own the bulk of the Velvet Underground's catalog decides to take a stab at compiling a single-disc "greatest-hits" album from the band's wildly influential body of work, and in 2006 the British branch of Universal/Polydor presented the latest entry in this ... see all copies from $11.28! new only from $11.28!
22	Coney Island Baby [30th Anniversary Deluxe Edition] (1976) more music like this by Lou Reed add to wishlist From 1972's Transformer onward, Lou Reed spent most of the '70s playing the druggy decadence card for all it was worth, with increasingly mixed results. But on 1976's Coney Island Baby, Reed's songwriting began to move into warmer, more compassionate territory, and the result was his most approachable album since Loaded. On most of the tracks, ... see all copies from $6.06! new only from $6.06!
23	Peel Slowly and See (1995) more music like this by The Velvet Underground add to wishlist Does this five-CD box set feature an abundance of essential material? Certainly. It has all four of the studio albums released by the Lou Reed-led lineup, and a wealth of previously unreleased goodies. Is it an essential purchase? That depends on your level of fanaticism. Most serious Velvet fans have all four of the core studio albums already ... see all copies from $46.68! new only from $46.68!
24	Mistrial (1986) more music like this by Lou Reed add to wishlist After three successive accomplished and mature albums, Lou Reed made an attempt to stay current with the stilted Mistrial. Six of the songs are driven by drum machines, which certainly gives the music a robotic feel. However, Reed doesn't help the situation any by turning in a set of songs that are stripped back to their bare rhythms, lacking ... see all copies from $7.00!
25	Friends: Music from the TV Series (1995) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist Friends successfully targets the same demographic of the television show -- twentysomethings that have grown too old for the noise and clutter of college life, yet reluctant to give up the commraderie (and, indeed, friendship) that stress creates. So, it's a collection of '80s college rock favorites (R.E.M., Paul Westerberg), '80s college rock ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
