"Walk on the Wild Side" is a Lou Reed song from his 1972 second solo album "Transformer". It was produced by David Bowie, who also sang backing vocals. The song received wide radio coverage, despite its touching on topics such as transsexuality, drugs, male prostitutes and oral sex and the term "colored" to refer to African Americans.
The song is also noted for its twin interlocking bass lines played by Herbie Flowers on double-bass and overdubbed fretless bass guitar, featuring the extensive use of a major tenth interval, which was unusual in pop music until then.
