''The Bells'' is the ninth album by Lou Reed, released through Arista Records in 1979. It is recorded in binaural sound. == Music and lyrics ==
"Disco Mystic" is indeed played in a disco style, and the lyrics consist of those two words repeated. "I Want to Boogie With You" has a doo-wop flavor (even if underneath the horns are the synthesizers which permeate this album), a IV-to-I plagal cadence repeated throughout. "City Lights" is a tribute to Charlie Chaplin, taking its name from the film of the same name. "Families" is an explicitly personal entreaty to his own parents and sister, with the closing line "Families that live out in the suburbs often make each other cry". The title track is said to be a favorite of Reed's, and he claims the lyrics were made up extemporaneously. Three tracks were co-composed with Nils Lofgren, with whom he also collaborated on Lofgren's 1979 album ''Nils''. Victor Bockris reported in his biography of Reed (alternately titled ''Transformer'' or ''Lou Reed'') that the master tapes to ''The Bells'' were lost. Since the book's release, however, remastered CD editions have been released in the United States, showing increased sound quality -- or at least, increased loudness -- compared to previous releases in other countries.
