Oddly, I'm a fan of Lou Reed's 70s albums but not too big of a fan of the velvets. But these ones I like a lot.

1. Who Loves the Sun
2. Sweet Jane
3 Venus in Furs
4. New Age
5. Waiting for the Man

And I have to admit, I prefer New Age and Sweet Jane in versions by other people. Namely Rachel Sweet and Mott the Hoople (that cowbell!!!!) respectively. Maybe even Waiting for the Man by David Bowie.

Ok my turn.

1. Venus In Furs
2. Heroin
3. All Tomorrow's Parties
4. Candy Says
5. Ocean (live 1969 version)
6. Sunday Morning
7. Pale Blue Eyes (it's too low, I don't know how that happened)
8. Rock & Roll
9. White Light/White Heat
10. After Hours

11th would be Sweet Jane, preferably live version
