I first composed this music for myself as an adjunctto meditation, Tai Chi, and bodywork, and as music to play in the background oflife, to replace the everyday cacophony with new and ordered sounds of anunpredictable nature. New sounds freed from preconception. ... over time, friends who heard the music asked if I could make them copies. I then wrote twomore pieces with the same intent: to relax the body, mind, and spirit andfacilitate meditation. " - Lou Reed Light in the Attic Records in cooperation with LaurieAnderson and the Lou Reed Archive, proudly announces a definitive re-release ofHudson River Wind Meditations, the pioneering artist's final solo album. Originally released in 2007, the deeply personal project combines Reed's loveof creating drone music with his passion for Tai Chi, yoga and meditation. Thealbum's ambient soundscapes have been described as a counterpoint to hisintense Metal Machine Music album-but they are similar outliers in Reed's 40+year exploration of drone music and feedback harmonics. The album has been remastered by the GRAMMY®-nominatedengineer John Baldwin with vinyl pressed at Record Technology Inc. (RTI). TheDouble LP set is presented in a gatefold jacket designed by GRAMMY®-winningartist, Masaki Koike and features new liner notes by renowned Yoga instructorand author, Eddie Stern, who guided Reed's practice for years. Also included inthe physical editions is a fascinating conversation conducted earlier this yearbetween author/journalist Jonathan Cott (Rolling Stone, The New Yorker) andReed's wife, artist Laurie Anderson, who discusses the album, as well as herhusband's devotion to Tai Chi - one of the album's primary inspirations. Hudson River Wind Meditations marks the latest release inLITA's Lou Reed Archival Series. Launched in 2022 in tandem with the lateartist's 80th birthday, the ongoing series has celebrated one of America's mostinfluential songwriters through such acclaimed collections as Words &Music, May 1965 featuring many of Reed's earliest (and previously-unreleased)recordings, including the earliest-known versions of "I'm Waiting for the Man"and "Pale Blue Eyes".

Shipping, Returns & Cancellations

SHIPPING:

We ship Monday through Friday. Orders typically ship within 24-72 hours. Tracking is sent to the email you provide at check out and may take a few days to become active.

Any items ordered with Pre-Orders will be held until they can all ship together. If you need in stock items faster please order them seperately.

RETURNS:

Returns are only accepted on damaged or defective items. Return requests must be made within 7 days of delivery. Please save the original packaging.

If you own a Crosley, Victrola or any other lower end turntable that has no ability to adjust the weight of the tone arm and are experiencing skipping on a new record please try the "Penny Trick". Simply place a penny on the top of the cartidge and it should provide enough weight to resolve your issues. While a great entry to the world of vinyl we do recommend upgrading to a turntable with a tone arm that can be adjusted as this issue will randomly occur. We do not take returns in these cases.

Resellers: If you are buying from us for resale we honestly don't mind. However, please don't panic if something you bought suddenly isn't flipable for more money and then try to return stuff to us because you feel like you made a bad investment choice. Despite our outsized reputation we're a small shop, not amazon. Absorbing these costs adds up on places like ours. Plus a little patience always tends to pay off.

CANCELLATIONS:

Due to an increasing number of payment processors no longer returning transaction fees to sellers on cancelled orders and rising labor costs any orders or pre-orders that need to be cancelled before shipment will be assessed a 5% cancellation/restocking fee on the order total including shipping and any other taxes or fees associated with the order.

Thank you for your understanding.
