Self Help Radio 131101: A Tribute To Lou Reed

I paid tribute to Lou Reed on my show on Friday.  I played a few songs "about" him, & a lot of people whom he had influenced covering his songs.

The show is now available for you to listen to on the Self Help Radio web page.  It's divided into two parts, & you can click on these links to get directly to them: part one | part two.  The list of the songs I played is below.

It may seem a shabby tribute to someone whose music is responsible for me loving music as much as I do.  It was, however, the best I could do.
