Heroin - written by Lou Reed

18 Disco Mystic (Lou Reed)   River Deep Mountain High (Ike & Tina)   I Wanna Boogie With You (Lou Reed)

Lou Reed became an exceptional inspiration to me as a musician, when I first discovered his music with "The Raven". He made it "legal" to sing in "something that's not quite a key", and he was a master of writing songs that can live outside their original arrangements. This is one of my favorite songs to play of his, and I recorded this version the day after he died.
Rest in Peace Lou, and thank you for the music.

The Velvet Underground are one of those bands that you hear about long before you ever actually hear them. I remember being pretty young, and reading lots of guitar magazines, and the name Velvet Underground came up in every interview of every band that I loved. And then there's that album with the banana on the cover. How cool is that?! Well when I finally got around to hearing "the banana album", I honestly couldn't believe it. It sounded so weird! It could have easily been a contemporary album during the 80's, 90's or 2000's alternative scenes. I guess that's what makes it timeless…? But this was 1967?! My parents were just kids! The Monkees were on TV! And here was Lou, singing about cross dressing, bondage, and needle drugs. If The Beatles were pop royalty of the day, I can only assume The Velvet Underground would have been their sketchy chimney sweeps, skipping work and selling smokes to the kids outside the palace. - Ryan Taylor (Sonny Tripp)

A message from Tall Firs:

"In honor of ATP’s End Of An Era festivals, Tall Firs decided to do a simple recording of the Velvet Underground tune 'All Tomorrow’s Parties'. We meant it as a tribute to our pals at ATP, and to all our fond memories of festivals past. Since we recorded it; Lou Reed sadly died. So now it’s a tribute to ATP, and Lou, and you - our fellow music fans."

Web watchers today may have noticed that one of our friends in the digital retail world jumped the gun a little by posting samples of all the tracks on "Lulu,"  so rather than have you checking out transcoded clips, we’ve posted higher quality streams of the same bits here for your previewing pleasure.
