Digging For Covers: Ziggy Stardust covers Lou Reed

Photobucket
A David Bowie/Lou Reed collaboration is a pretty damn special occurrence—whether it's Reed's solo breakthrough and classic Transformer, or in this case, Bowie's 1973 live version of "White Light/White Heat." Easily one of the best Velvet Underground covers of all time, Bowie and his Spiders From Mars band kicked out this rollicking performance during the final Ziggy Stardust show.
