Connections 201 2nd November 2013

This show was dedicated to the music and memory of Lou Reed...it's very difficult to sum up the work of such a complex and multi faceted artist in a few minutes...Rather to reflect on his influence across the music industry. The connections in this week's show then are generally almost all connected back to him or aspects of his career in some way or another...
