I know Lou Reed from Velvet Underground. His influence on music cannot be denied—his music is a precursor to punk and his lyricism pushed boundaries for all genres. Nevertheless, his music is not my taste. It is an example of knowing something is important without myself being drawn to it. This was my first time listening to Transformer, and I have to say, it is my favorite of his with a few songs that clicked with me especially Perfect Day. I am glad to have heard this album, though I wouldn’t revisit it often.
