Lou Reed METAL MACHINE MUSIC Limited Numbered 25th Anniversary CD 2000 NM Rare!

Description: Metal Machine Music (subtitled *The Amine β Ring) is the fifth studio album by American rock musician Lou Reed. It was recorded on a three-speed Uher machine and was mastered/engineered by Bob Ludwig. It was released as a double album in July 1975 by RCA Records, but taken off the market three weeks later. A radical departure from the rest of his catalog, the Metal Machine Music album features no songs or recognizably structured compositions, eschewing melody and rhythm for modulated feedback and noise music guitar effects, mixed at varying speeds by Reed. Metal Machine Music confounded reviewers and listeners when it was first released. HERE IS A COPY of the 2000 reissue on CD to celebrate its 25th anniversary. David Fricke, who wrote a new essay included in the accompanying booklet, says: “There is no other album in rock & roll like Metal Machine Music. There may be no album that is more rock & roll than Metal Machine Music. Certainly no other rock album by an extablished star and issued on a major label has generated such mad love and ferocious loathing – sometimes in the same listener – continuously for twenty-five years.” This numbered copy (#2395 appears on the card slipcase only, see photo) is in like new condition. The CD, jewelcase, booklet and slipcase are all in near mint condition. Notes25th Anniversary reissue in numbered limited edition holographic slipcase. © 2000 Buddha Records ℗ 1975 RCA Records.
