Le Bataclan '72 is a sixteen-track live album by Lou Reed, John Cale and Nico. It was recorded from the soundboard and heavily bootlegged over the years, before it gained an official release in 2004.
This official release includes two exclusive bonus tracks (both rehearsals—"Pale Blue Eyes" and "Candy Says"). This is the legendary show recorded at the Bataclan club in Paris, on January 29 1972. The concert marked the first time since the break up of The Velvet Underground that Reed, Cale and Nico were on stage together.
It needs to be pointed out that at least one pressing of this CD was mastered at the wrong speed (too slow).
