Transformer is the second solo studio album by American musician Lou Reed. Produced by David Bowie and Mick Ronson, the album was released on November 8, 1972 by RCA Records. It is considered an influential landmark of the glam rock genre, anchored by Reed's most successful single, "Walk on the Wild Side", which touched on controversial topics of sexual orientation, gender identity, prostitution, and drug use. Although Reed's self-titled debut solo album had been unsuccessful, Bowie had been an early fan of Reed's former band the Velvet Underground and used his fame to promote Reed, who had not yet achieved mainstream success. - Wikipedia https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PbaLjKWKTJs&list=RDPbaLjKWKTJs&start_radio=1 #LouReed #Transformer #MickRonson #DavidBowie #GlamRock #Music #NewYork
