A rare, newly unearthed soundboard recording from the 1977 Rock and Roll Heart tour! This release captures the second night of a three-show run at London’s New Victoria Theatre on April 27. While a few tracks are slightly incomplete, the performance is preserved in pristine, top-tier soundboard quality.
Originally scheduled for the London Palladium, the venue canceled the booking out of fear of "punk riots"—as Lou Reed was notoriously viewed by the establishment as the "Godfather of Punk." This resulting New Victoria show is a piece of rock history, now available for the first time via this remarkable soundboard source!
