    Still perhaps Lou's best live set and most treasured bootleg after all
    these years, this May '74 recording was first issued as "Stiff on His
    Legend" back in the seventies. It went through a few lp variations and
    has been made available in several CD versions also, some of which
    include 3 more tracks from the same show (Sweet Jane, Vicious, Rock and
    Roll). Recorded in Stockholm at the beginning of Lou's infamous Sally
    pharmaceutical tour, he's in top punk form. A classic bootleg in every
    sense.

    ======================

    rednoise's note: I got this off usenet in 2003. It's obviously from a
    vinyl source, as you can occasionally hear a bit of surface noise.
    Still, it sounds excellent, and the performace is great.

    Lou Reed
    May 14, 1974
    Konserthuset
    Stockholm, Sweden

    Complete set - correct speed and running order.

    This is an upgrade over what is posted at: http://www.dimeadozen.org/torrents-details.php?id=192289

    This copy here is edited together into the correct show running order, as corrected in the comments of the previous seed. Quite a few other minor vinyl clicks were repaired (mostly in Sister Ray) - Sorry but when vinyl is in the lineage, there are always more minor improvements that can be done with the Pro Tools pencil tool... A short dropout in Vicious was also smoothed out. Sorry for the extra bandwidth but it should be worth the extra download to get this great quality recording even better...

    disc 1 - main set - 74:42
    101 [10:31] Intro > Sweet Jane
    102 [07:18] Vicious
    103 [04:03] Ride Sally Ride
    104 [11:11] Heroin
    105 [03:49] Lady Day
    106 [08:32] I'm Waiting For The Man
    107 [07:43] Oh Jim
    108 [04:41] Walk On The Wild Side
    109 [11:09] Rock and Roll
    110 [05:33] White Light/White Heat
    112 [00:12] thanks and crowd before encore

    disc 2 - encore - 8:10
    201 [08:10] Sister Ray (complete)

    The Band
    Lou Reed - vocals
    Danny Weis - guitar
    Prakash John - bass guitar
    Penti "Whitey" Glan - drums
    Michael Fonfara - keyboards

    Other notes: The Swedish state radio company gave Lou and his new live band studio time for rehearsals and then the first show of the tour at the Concerthouse in Stockholm was recorded for FM brodcast for the radioshow "Tonkraft".

    I burned this with just the encore on a second disc, but the show can be split elsewhere or left as the full show on a hard disk if desired (the disc transition is seamless).

    Sources:
    1. Second generation pre-broadcast 1/2 track reel recorded at 7.5 ips speed.
    2. Second (or possibly third) generation pre-broadcast 1/4 track reel recorded at 7.5 ips speed.
    3. Vinyl bootleg "What Ever Happened To Dick & Steve?".

    THANKS to all of the many seeders of this excellent show!!

    Enjoy and SHARE!

    Lou Reed Stockholm 1974-05-14 Upgrade

    The Swedish state radio company gave Lou and his new live band studio time for rehersals. Then the first show of the tour at the Concerthouse in Stockholm was then recorded for FM brodcast (for the radioshow "Tonkraft") . This torrent is in my opinion an upgrade from earlier. This one have never been circulated before.

    ReelToReel 2 track 19cm/s (second generation not from the brodcast)->Cool Edit Pro->Flac (RR)
    Vinyl Bootleg "What Ever Happened To Dick & Steve"->Cool Edit Pro->Flac (LP)

    "Sister Ray" is a bit edited (about a minute is deleted) so the show fits on a single CD (79:28).

    The Band
    Lou Reed - Vocals
    Danny Weis - Guitar
    Prakash John - Bass Guitar
    Penti "Whitey" Glan - Drums
    Michael Fonfara - Keyboards, Organ
