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 Ber-

lin, two from Rock N Roll Animal (one of

is Sweet Jane minus the introductory fan-

fare), and the title tracks from Sally Can't

Dance and Coney Island Baby, plus the

previously non-LP B-side "Nowhere at All."

It was a bulletproof selection, as unimagi-

native as it was dependable, which oddly

was why it worked so well. Reed's solo ca-

reer had seen some extreme tangents and

this album caught them, from the Dylan-ish

"Wild Child" to the glam pop of the Trans-

former material, and from the heavy metal

rearrangements of old Velvet Underground

songs on Rock N Roll Animal to the at-

tempts at straightforward adult singer-

songwriter rock on songs like "Coney Is-

land Baby." The regular albums had been

uneven, but here Reed comes off as an

accomplished dabbler in a variety of styles

who really had something to say and said

it sometimes humorously sometimes fran-

tically, but always with conviction. Reed

has been a prolific artist, and this album

captures only a fraction of his catalog, but

he is actually less eclectic as a rule than

this collection makes him seem, so the re-

sult is an excellent introduction.
