[Edit]

There's no perfect Lou Reed greatest hits album. His career is too quirky, too varied, and without enough established hits to assemble an orthodox hits collection. His entire career has been about exploring the margins of society, and it isn't uncommon to learn that even among friends there's no agreement on Reed's finest moments. This collection was issued in 1980 and was revised and further stripped down when it later appeared on CD. It features a cursory look at Reed's career, including eight tracks from his Velvet Underground days (though it should be noted that "Heroin" and "Femme Fatale" are the versions from 1969: The Velvet Underground Live). In a perfect world fans would own all of The Velvet Underground's studio albums, but surely the greatness of "Waiting for the Man," "Pale Blue Eyes," and "Sweet Jane" will entice casual fans to explore further. "Walk on the Wild Side" is Reed's one definitive solo career hit, while "Berlin" and "Street Hassle" are the two solo tunes that receive regular critical praise.
