Composed by Lou Reed. Arranged by Alpin Smart (Transcription for Guitar [TAB] w/chord symbols/lyrics). 20th Century,Pop,Rock. Tablature. 3 pages. SmartWorks Publications #1074803. Published by SmartWorks Publications (A0.1498505).
Taken from Lou Reed's ground-breaking second solo album, Transformer, this little gem of a bittersweet 'love song' demonstrates, once again - as does every single title on this legendary and iconoclastic album (not Lou Reed's first, either!) - the rare (and, in this case, unique!) marvel that occurs when four giants of late 20th century Rock and Pop come together in a once-in-a-lifetime collaboration: Lou Reed, David Bowie, Mick Ronson and Tony Visconti, the 'alchemical quartet' turning Leaden Rock into Pure GOLD! This arangement for guitar isn't a transcription of Ronson's hauntingly melodic piano, but a more straightforward version, more suited to the guitar, and allowing for plenty of invention and improvisation from the player(s). Ronson's guitar 'chops' and bridge solo included!
