Lou Reed – Coney Island Baby (Vinyl)
Coney Island Baby, Lou Reed‘s sixth studio album after leaving The Velvet Underground, is all about context. Lou Reed’s first solo outings were David Bowie influenced and were pretty great. Then Lou decided he wanted to fuck with his audience and out spewed Sally Can’t Dance and Metal Machine Music.
Coney Island Baby is what Reed should have been doing all along. His instantly recognizable monotone sounds much more comfortable above the minimalist masterpieces of Coney Island Baby and he is obviously more at home with these songs of love and hate. It’s much more simple and straight forward than his previous solo work and, if anything, proves that the less is more aesthetic works for Reed in all of its glory.

PRE-ORDERS
Flying Nun only debits your account for a pre-order when it has actually landed in our store. We believe this is fair because supply can often be unreliable - availability and release dates frequently change without notice. Pre-order with Flying Nun and you can cancel any time prior to the product arriving at our store.
OUT OF STOCK ITEMS
Flying Nun only make products available to purchase on our website when they are actually physically held at the store (except pre-orders). Vinyl availability from all local and international suppliers changes on a daily/hourly basis. Therefore, it is not possible to guarantee an online order for many items not currently held in stock.
