In Rolling Stone’s recent review of Lou Reed’s Berlin: Live at St. Ann’s Warehouse, Barry Walters writes, “The Kurt Weill-like class commentary of ‘Men of Good Fortune’ gains severity: Guitarist Steve Hunter embodies privilege with flashy heroics, and Reed represents unskilled labor via blunt six-string bursts.” The album is out digitally now via iTunes and drops on disc November 4th, but we’ve got a freebie download of that very track for you right now. Plus, check the next issue for an interview with Reed, and click below for David Fricke’s review of the Brooklyn show that’s documented on the new album.
