Capsule review: Lou Reed - Coney island baby (1976)


He's just a gift to the women of this world. Also to fans of his trademark lyrical barbs ('I'm gonna punch his face in', but sung in character) dressed in melodious rock'n'roll. Coney Island Baby is nothing if not seductive, with deep roots in Reed's love of doowop. Dig a little deeper and it gets transgressive, but never uncomfortably so. A little honey etc.
