Vinyl LP pressing. Digitally remastered edition of this 1972 release. Transformer is the second solo studio album by Lou Reed. Produced by David Bowie and arranged by Mick Ronson, the album was released in November 1972 by RCA Records. Bowie had been an early fan of the Velvet Underground, and used his own fame to promote Reed, then a cult favorite who had not yet achieved mainstream success, and had seen his self-titled solo debut album released a year earlier fall into obscurity. Transformer is one of Reed's strongest and consistent solo albums, and contains the songs "Satellite of Love", "Perfect Day" and "Walk on the Wild Side". As with it's predecessor Lou Reed, Transformer contains songs Reed composed while in the Velvet Underground (here, four out of ten). As in Reed's Velvet Underground days, the Andy Warhol connection remained strong. According to Reed, Warhol told him he should write a song about someone vicious. When Reed asked what he meant by vicious, Warhol replied, "Oh, you know, like I hit you with a flower", resulting in the song "Vicious".

"Transformer" is the iconic LP by Lou Reed, released in 1972 and produced by David Bowie and Mick Ronson. This album marked a turning point in Reed's career, featuring timeless tracks like "Walk on the Wild Side," "Perfect Day," and "Satellite of Love." Its blend of glam rock, pop, and insightful lyricism captured the spirit of New York?s underground scene. The record is celebrated for its bold storytelling and innovative soundscapes that influenced generations of musicians. Lou Reed, formerly frontman of The Velvet Underground, was renowned for his poetic lyrics and boundary-pushing music; his solo work further cemented his legacy as one of rock?s most influential artists. Sony Music, a global leader in entertainment since its founding over a century ago (as Columbia Records), has consistently supported groundbreaking artists across genres?making it fitting that this classic release comes from their catalog.
