Fuck me, this is amazing! Love the sound fx atmosphere, and the bass and uke combo is outstanding. I prefer the trajectory of this to the original - sounds a bit quicker and insistent. Your vocal is magnificent. Just perfect all round. I have no idea how you pulled off the 'sax' solo at the end, but I tip my hat to you.

Thanks all.

Initially I was going to avoid it completely but I bit the bullet and transcribed it note by note. The sax sound is from the Mellowsound mellotron app, and with a GB electric piano to beef it up a bit.

This is superb.
Your vocal sounds perfect and the additional outside noise is very captivating.
Great bass sound as well.
Up there with the original  this really is a unique site full of unique people.
Bravo sir.

This is fabulous Nick, I love the mix of the uke and the bass instruments and the vocal is just perfect. I love the natural ambiance, it's done something quite special

Love the vocals in some ways how Lou Reed should've sounded. Its a great cover i even envy your brushes on the drums. I just cant find them on my VST (lol)

We couldn't leave this 1972 festival without a cover of this beautiful song

..and I'm glad you left the double bass gimmick as the original one

beautiful and nice tribute to Lou Reed
