Available this time is a sealed copy of The Bottom Line Archive Series: In Their Own Words by Lou Reed and Kris Kristofferson on vinyl. This is a limited edition triple album that has been released for RSD 2022. We bring you another historic, once-in-a-lifetime meeting taking place during the winter of ’94 on that venerable Bottom Line stage. Culled from an evening that also included Suzanne Vega and Victoria Williams, there was perhaps no other pairing more perfectly suited to the In Their Own Words platform than this singular meeting of Lou Reed and Kris Kristofferson. As much a course in music history and songwriting as a performance, and years before VH1’s Storytellers series, Allan Pepper and Vin Scelsa’s In Their Own Words series afforded the audience a window into the minds of their favorite song-smiths, in a run that lasted from May of 1990 until March of 2003. The two song-smiths in question were born and raised in two very different worlds - Lou Reed in the jungles of New York City and Kris Kristofferson in the heart of the Southland. Still, both men demanded total artistic freedom and created raw, brutally honest art that addressed strikingly similar issues of struggles – with loneliness and alienation, addiction and recovery, love and loss, good and evil, vulnerability and hopelessness - painfully aware of contradictions and critical of hypocrisy, painting pictures of characters known or imagined, yet always finding the humanity in our faults and weaknesses during our darkest hours. Through the lens of their music, Lou and Kris view the human condition with a sense of humility and no small amount of humor, which was always close at hand. Originally only on cd and download formats, this 3lp set gives you 17 tracks in total. Only 1500 copies made. An excellent addition to any Lou Reed and Kris Kristofferson collection.

Grading is by visual inspection only. I never rate anything as mint, that is just the way I look at things as there might be a slight imperfect I cannot see. Near mint is the highest I grade. I do my best to package everything as best I can. Unfortunately small things may happen in shipping like minor bumps to the sleeve or seam splits. Inner sleeve seam splits are not considered defective unfortunately. That is not covered by any insurance through the shipping company. If you would like the record taken out of the sleeve, please let me know and I will ship it that way for you. If on the rare time the item arrives broken, that is covered. Please send pictures if that has happened.
Item is located in Canada.
I can combine shipping if you are looking at purchasing more than one item. Please email if you are wondering about additional costs. If you do order more than one item, please wait until you receive my final invoice and not the one from ebay as mine will have the correct price and I cannot send refunds for over payment
