Well, this is a nice New Year’s present. I just now discovered that my essay about Lou Reed’s and Metallica’s Lulu has attracted the attention of the guys themselves (or at least their publicity people), who put a link to it on the Press page for the album. Yikes!
Apparently the link’s been there since November 15. However, it seems to have been broken by my recent site move. It can now be found here.
While I haven’t actually been in contact with Lou or Metallica, I’m gratified and humbled at the possibility that they might have actually read my ramblings, and that they know that, after all, some of us don’t think the album sucks.
Thanks, guys.
That listing on the loureed&metallica website is how I came upon you, in the first place. I am enjoying your website very much. Also, thanks for posting my thoughts on Lulu. I still listen to at least part of the album or watch a couple of songs, every day.
I am a 61 year old woman who is newly(as of 14 months ago) re-obsessed with Metallica. Thanks for being here and see you on the flip.
Well, thank you! I’m quite flattered! Hopefully, I’m able to be somewhat interesting from time to time…
