WATCH: Luke Haines – Lou Reed Lou Reed

First look at Luke Haines' new video, celebrating all things Lou Reed

Enjoy the bonkers video for ‘Lou Reed Lou Reed’ by Luke Haines below. The single was a limited edition Record Store Day vinyl release, but has been considered worthy of a video featuring, to pick but two examples, numerous Lou Reeds on a New York subway train and a Campbell’s soup with exclusively Reed-based ingredients.

The track is from Haines’ forthcoming album New York In The 70s, released via Cherry Red on May 19. It’s billed as "a mythical re-imagining of a long gone age, by a man who hails from Surrey, southern UK", and is the sibling of last year’s Rock And Roll Animals and 2011’s 9½ Psychedelic Meditations On British Wrestling Of The 1970s And Early ’80s.
