"Magic and Loss" by Lou Reed!

There is a lot of great music out there, so I often don't make recommendations -- recommendations are too limiting...
However, there is one album, that I keep turning to, and which I am constantly blown away by. It may be more of an older person's album, as it deals with mortality, death, disease, and medicine -- and I don't think I ever appreciated it as much as I do now, having survived all that I have in the past ten years -- but, nevertheless, it is one album that I would highly recommend.
I'm a big Lou Reed fan, and I have much of his work, but this one album stands out heads-and-tails above what has already been a truly superior career. I think it is because the poetic ruminations on this album were sparked by the death of two close friends of his, and you can really feel it in his words, music, and performance.
Anyway, the album is "Magic and Loss." I highly recommend it, and I don't often endorse things like this. So be there, or be square!
