1	Velvet Goldmine (1998) more music like this by Original Soundtrack Glam rock was all about style as substance, finding truth through image. Todd Haynes realized this, constructing Velvet Goldmine, his ode to glam, as a hallucinatory experience where the surface means as much, if not more, than the underlying meanings. Which means, of course, that Haynes' view of glam was based on the artier inclinations of David ... see all copies from $9.99! new only from $10.23!
2	Transformer [Expanded Edition] (2002) more music like this by Lou Reed 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 $6.75! new only from $8.98!
3	Transformer (1972) more music like this by Lou Reed 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 $8.71!
4	Walk on the Wild Side: The Best of Lou Reed (1977) more music like this by Lou Reed 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 $2.98! new only from $10.45!
5	The Cable Guy (1996) more music like this by Original Soundtrack The soundtrack to Jim Carrey's black comedy The Cable Guy is a typically uneven set of alternative hard rock. None of this material has appeared on albums or singles before and, unfortunately, much of this does sound like leftovers or rejects, particularly offerings by the Toadies, $10,000 Gold Chain and Silverchair. However, Jerry Cantrell's ... see all copies from $1.99!
6	The Million Dollar Hotel (2000) more music like this by Original Soundtrack The main charm and flaw of the soundtrack to Wim Wenders' The Million Dollar Hotelis exactly the same thing: a sultry, omnipresent moodiness, as seductive as it is lulling. At first, it draws the listener in; U2's "The Ground Beneath Her Feet" and "Never Let Me Go" (performed by Bono and the MDH Band, a superstar collective featuring Brian Eno and ... see all copies from $2.99! new only from $10.00!
7	Live: Take No Prisoners (1978) more music like this by Lou Reed "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 $19.00! new only from $19.28!
8	Extended Versions (2003) more music like this by Lou Reed This midline/budget package duplicates the contents of Lou Reed Live. Reed is captured December 21, 1973, from the same Academy of Music performance that yielded the arguably better-balanced Rock 'n' Roll Animal (released in 1974). Granted, the road band could never replicate the finesse of the all-star aggregate on the Berlin studio disc; however ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
9	One [UK] [CD] (1992) more music like this by U2 see all copies from $2.98!
10	Boxed (2005) more music like this by Eurythmics see all copies from $69.24! new only from $69.24!
11	Loaded [Fully Loaded Edition] (1997) more music like this by The Velvet Underground 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 $10.76! new only from $18.32!
12 view cover	Rev (1999) more music like this by Perry Farrell Perry Farrell has been the singer of two groundbreaking, influential bands -- Jane's Addiction and Porno for Pyros -- so it was only fitting that a best-of should be issued. The 1999 16-track compilation Rev included highlights and rarities from both outfits, as well as a pair of new solo tracks. While most of the expected songs are featured ( ... see all copies from $6.99! new only from $6.99!
13 view cover	NYC Man: The Ultimate Lou Reed Collection (2003) more music like this by Lou Reed 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 $21.54! new only from $21.54!
14 view cover	Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This) [Bonus Tracks] (2005) more music like this by Eurythmics The Eurythmics' breakthrough album is a deft mix of electronic thrills, new wave chills, and sultry R&B, the latter supplied by Annie Lennox's warm tenor. Pretty much relying on themselves, Lennox and Dave Stewart slip past the music's usual coldness and into a territory all their own. It can be smug (the new wave here is served with a side of ... see all copies from $15.88! new only from $15.88!
15 view cover	Different Times: Lou Reed in the '70s (1996) more music like this by Lou Reed Lou Reed is very much an album-oriented artist, and those who think they may develop a serious interest in his work are better advised to seek individual titles than compilations. If you just want some of his best songs around the house, though, this is a well-chosen, economic 17-track survey of his best material from his best period as a solo act ... see all copies from $4.99! new only from $185.55!
16 view cover	The Ovulators (2006) by The Ovulators see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
17 view cover	Live in Italy (1984) more music like this by Lou Reed Robert Quine has said that the personal and musical differences that led to the end of his working relationship with Lou Reed had put a wall between them well before he finally gave Reed his notice. While Quine never failed to deliver on-stage, the tension became audible in their music, and Live in Italy captures the best band of Reed's solo ... see all copies from $5.77! new only from $5.77!
18 view cover	Lou Reed Live (1975) more music like this by Lou Reed Three songs from Transformer, two songs from Berlin, and the Velvet Underground's "I'm Waiting for the Man." Just a shade less visceral than Rock 'n' Roll Animal. Rob Bowman, All Music Guide see all copies from $9.95! new only from $35.64!
19 view cover	American Poet (2001) more music like this by Lou Reed Finally, this is an official release of the December 26, 1972, performance of Reed on a New York radio show, which had been floating around on numerous bootlegs for many years. The sound is at least as good as it's been on any of those bootlegs. As for the music, it's inarguably among the finest of Reed's solo work, released or unreleased. The set ... see all copies from $14.51! new only from $14.51!
20 view cover	Live in Concert (1997) more music like this by Lou Reed It's widely agreed among Lou Reed connoisseurs that his 1984 release Live in Italy is one of the best live albums of his recording career. But since it was never issued domestically (only available as an import), it has become increasingly harder and harder to find over the years. So in 1996, BMG got the rights to the recordings and reissued the ... see all copies from $4.10! new only from $4.10!
21 view cover	Retro (1989) more music like this by Lou Reed There have been too many international Lou Reed compilations, and this is one of the extraneous ones. Containing 17 tracks, it chronicles Reed's two sojourns at RCA, 1972-1976 and 1982-1986. That makes for less diversity than you might expect, since Reed isn't really a stylist, but it's also somewhat random. Still, some of Reed's catchiest ... see all copies from $11.89! new only from $17.44!
22 view cover	The Platinum & Gold Collection (2004) more music like this by Lou Reed For a guy who has only scored one bona fide hit single in the course of 35 years, Lou Reed sure has more than his share of "greatest-hits" compilations in his discography, most of which make clear that his career doesn't lend itself to an especially coherent single-disc overview, primarily because of the stylistic diversity and creative ups and ... see all copies from $3.29! new only from $3.29!
23 view cover	Legendary (2002) more music like this by Lou Reed Fans and critics are generally agreed that Lou Reed is one of the more important figures in rock & roll and that his output as a solo artist has been uneven. There is less consensus, however, about what recordings among his many solo albums are his best. Reed has scored only one hit single, "Walk on the Wild Side," and only a handful of his other ... see all copies from $8.79! new only from $35.98!
24 view cover	Very Best of Lou Reed (2000) more music like this by Lou Reed Another year, another Lou Reed compilation. Or perhaps more accurately -- come the early 21st century, another year, another few Lou Reed compilations. Yes, the pace has picked up quite a bit as of recently, as evidenced by the appearance of such sets as 2000's Very Best of Lou Reed. Unfortunately, its title is quite misleading -- how can this be ... see all copies from $5.07! new only from $12.55!
25 view cover	Collections (2006) more music like this by Lou Reed Released in 2006, this budget-priced Collections compilation features 12 songs from Lou Reed's late-'70s/early-'80s output, including obvious hits like "Walk on the Wild Side," "Satellite of Love," and "Vicious," as well as deeper cuts like "Tell It to You Heart" from 1986's wildly uneven Mistrial and "The Gun" from 1982's overlooked Blue Mask ... see all copies from $4.99! new only from $4.99!
