Set the Twilight Reeling is a 1996 album by rock and roll singer Lou Reed.
Cover art from Stefan Sagmeister. The CD case sold with the album was a dark purple/blue hue, making the cover look simply like a dark blue picture of Reed's face; the bright yellow aspect and the "rays" of the cover image were only made apparent when the liner notes were removed from the case.
"Finish Line" was written as a tribute to Velvet Underground guitarist Sterling Morrison who had died the previous year.
