More Info:
Originally released in '79, this stands as one of Reed's most critically acclaimed albums, as well being a favorite of the artist himself. Tracks include "Stupid Man," "Disco Mystic," "I Want to Boogie with You," "All Through the Night" and moreReviews:
''The Bells'' is the ninth album by Lou Reed, released through Arista Records in 1979. It is recorded in binaural sound. "City Lights" is a tribute to Charlie Chaplin. "Disco Mystic" is indeed played in a disco style, and the lyrics consist of those two words repeated. "Families" is an explicitly personal entreaty to his own parents and sister, with the closing line "Families that live out in the suburbs often make each other cry". "I Want to Boogie With You" has a doo-wop flavor (even if underneath the horns are the synthesizers which permeate this album), a I-to-IV Plagal Cadence repeated throughout. The title track is said to be a favorite of Reed's, and he claims the lyrics were made up extemporaneously. Three tracks were co-composed with Nils Lofgren and their joint compositions are also included on ''Nils'', Lofgren's 1979 album. - Wikipedia
