Still mourning Lou. Another classic IMHO as he chronicles the USA's dark side. X cert lyrics - be warned.   1

Hard hitting lyrics. Listen to all of it. #BleakBeauty

From his 1978 album of the same name. A three part vignette of life on the mean streets. Here is the lush pop treatment that Arista gave him which he dropped when he went back to RCA. Good though and angular rock still leaks through.   13

#TillTheWheelsComeOff Still no word from the ether on my #FinalJam but flying this from The King of NY. A killer 1980 live performance of a rock opera in a single song.   6
