Lou Reed?s Berlin (2007) Rated PG-13, 85 mins. Thirty-three years after his ambitious concept album Berlin was pronounced dead on arrival, Lou Reed reteams with producers Bob Ezrin and Hal Willner to stage live performances of the now-classic release at concert venues all across the globe. The album, which was savaged by critics upon release, was eventually named by Rolling Stone as one of the top 500 albums ever released. Live musical performance by Beartoe. Beartoe no doubt shows introspection, but has brought together a sound that?s been filtered through the roots and rich history of Florida folk, delta blues and soul. Beartoe plays to the kick of your heart, channeling the spirit of the Duende.
