On December 24 last year 17 acoustic Lou Reed tracks popped on various digital outlets (as inferior AAC 256 kbps files). They disappeared shortly after that - just another Sony scheme to secure the copyright. I'm So Free: The 1971 RCA Demos now gets the vinyl treatment for Record Store Day (April 23). It is not the full set - Hangin' Around (Take 2), Love Makes You Feel (Take 2), I Can't Stand It and Walk It And Talk It did not make the cut. Still, it is nice to have Lou working through these songs, instructing the engineer to "fade" as a song is nearing the end. 7550 copies worldwide.
