This is a key line. I don't think Reed's scathing sarcasm translates well. But think of the TAKE NO PRISONERS version, which features black backup singers. Totally different than Johnny Rebel.

listening to: PJ Harvey White Chalk. I'm having trouble loving it as much as I want to. I probably need to spin it a few more times.

Anyway I think Lou played game in quite explosive issues that time. I think he had been easily misunderstood even in the english speaken world. But he was Lou. And you´re right, Lou wasn´t stupid, JR is.
White Chalk is one of my favourites in Harvey´s records. Really different than any of her albums, maybe the darkest one.
