"The Power of the Heart" pays homage to Reed's freedom of expression with covers spanning his groundbreaking years with the Velvets to his majestic solo career. Each track is a glorious extension of the soul of Rock'n'Roll Animal, always adventurous and avant-garde.

The Power of the Heart: A Tribute to Lou Reed begins with its own legend, Keith Richards, reinterpreting the Velvets' classic "I'm Waiting for the Man." Richards' interpretation immediately invites you on this unforgettable journey. In stark contrast, Rufus Wainwright's adaptation of "Perfect Day" is somehow even more melancholic than the original, with sparse fingerpicking and gentle harmonies. Joan Jett and the Blackhearts deliver a version of "I'm So Free" that would make Lou rock in his grave.
