Mike Hopes You Listen to Velvet Underground

Loaded by Velvet Underground

It seems like at the beginning of every spring Velvet Underground's "Loaded" hits the rotation in my playlist. Maybe it's because I've been so sick of the doldrums of winter that I can really rock out to "Who Loves the Sun." And there's nothing quite like rolling down the windows and cranking up "Rock 'n Roll", which is Lou Reed's paean to America's present to the world. Of course, every song on the album is great (imho) so you'll just have to grab a copy, roll the windows down, and blast it as you're driving down the highway on a bright spring day.
