Is this Lou Reed with Kerry?...
Not sure of the year for this photo. Any Velvet Underground devotees out there?

2. I think not, but if it is, Kerry is a true miracle worker
He made Lou smile.

3. No offense, that doesn't look anything like Lou Reed....
On any number of levels. The hair, the sh*t eating grin (Does Lou Reed ever smile?), the flannel shirt.

I'd be very surprised if it was.

5. No offense taken :)
I thought the hair could be Lou's, but it's hard to tell without his usual glasses. The profile I thought was close too, except for the smile :). I'd seen pics of Kerry with John Lennon and others from the early 70's, and I know Reed is a dem supporter, so I thought just maybe...

Any idea on who the "Reed" in the photo might be?

6. Lou was pretty coke/leather/makeup/berlin/sadomaso around this time
I'm guessing your pic was 72 0r 73


FWIW, here is a nice Lou photo scrollable timeline:
