Sweet Jesus Jane "Lulu" IS as Bad as I Thought

After listening to the whole godawful thing, I think Metal Machine Music,long regarded as an unlistenable and/or an intentional joke, may not have been the Lou Reed worst recording ever. Lulu is epic bad. By the advanced chatter, see e.g., Steven Hyden's peice in Salon, it sounds like Lulu become a musical meme.
