Lou Reed, Nico, and John Cale: Live at Le Bataclan '72

With the enormous interest generated by the Velvet Underground bootleg I posted a few weeks ago, "Live at the Gymnasium 1967" (Link), I thought I would post another show. This one isn't quite as rare, but it's just as interesting. In it, Lou Reed, John Cale, and Nico have a semi-reunion and play VU songs alongside their own solo work. You could kind of say it's the VU "unplugged". Here's the tracklist:

1 I'm Waiting for the Man
2 Berlin
3 The Black Angel's Death Song (Reed, Cale)
4 Wild Child
5 Heroin
6 Ghost Story (Cale)
7 The Biggest, Loudest, Hairiest Group of All (Cale)
8 Empty Bottles (Cale)
9 Femme Fatale
10 No One Is There (Nico)
11 Frozen Warnings (Nico)
12 Janitor of Lunacy (Nico)
13 I'll Be Your Mirror
14 All Tomorrow's Parties (encore)
