Satellite of Love - Lou Reed (for 1972 fest)

[Zoltan]

Ok, there wasn't much to do with this "vanity" affair. I did this while recording the other song and thought i had recorded more, but as it stands there's only: one bass track, one guitar track and one vocal track + backing vocals. So it was an easy mixing session

I thought of doing this and, or Perfect Day with a similar tempo. They sounded quite samey and this is the only one i recorded. The short lenght is mainly down to faster tempo and because i skipped the bridge section. I like Satellite of Love and Perfect Day but both songs have unnecessary (imho) bridge that i always skip in real life when listening...

[StephenM]

reminds me of the Cars and that is about as good as it gets in my book....
killer drums, bass, and that guitar...oh.  that guitar is so dang tasty...
well done... I got a double dose of the Zoltan of Swing this morning!  Now that is indeed a good day, and it is only noon here.

Nice upbeat punky version.. very Zoltan ! Good choice from the Transformer album ! I covered this about 10 years ago for Space Fest but your version is a lot livelier ! Great job !

Very good cover Zoltan, nice and punchy. And now that Stephen mentions it, there is a bit of a Cars vibe here... cool! Enjoyed this.

This is bloody great. Transformer is one of my favourite albums, and I like how you've rocked this one up. It really works. But so short! I wanted more!!!!

[TPB]

I love the rocked up version you have laid down

Very fun and energetic version of this track, perhaps it sounds like The Stooges in this form . Love the bass work and the brevity of it makes me think of those old early punk singles. Excellent

Damn, I wish I could be that tight in the pocket on bass. Loved this to death. Lou was out there.
