Re: [Classic_Rock_Forever] Re: Fw: Day in Rock Report

I respectfully disagree. I think Lou sounds like Lou, and Metallica sound like themselves in a backing role. It is putting those two things together that make it challenging. It is definitely a different beast, but for whatever reason, it works for me.

Lulu sounds like neither Metallica nor Lou Reed

it's just bad

Lou has always been capable of a certain element of musical ambivalence, and there have been times when he has made that work really well

Lulu is not one of those times

Just a guess, but I believe metallica fans wanting to hear a metallica sound (some kind of monster..for who the bell tolls...) but instead got more of a lou reed sound (sweet jane).

While I like both lou reed and metallica, I can see pure metal heads wanting nothing to do with reed. (just not heavy enough).

This one may have been a nice thought but because of the extreme difference in styles just doent work as hoped.

Only a guess.
