Title: 40th anniversary... Post by: sonic youth on Wednesday, October 17, 2007, 14:44:16 ...of the release of the velvet underground & nico and 6music have been doing a feature on it all day.
does anyone else think it's a pretty shit album? nico totally ruins it and i think the only two decent tunes are heroin and venus in furs... Title: Re: 40th anniversary...

Nah....think it still stands up pretty well after 40 years, it was quite a departure for the time.....John Cale came from a small village up in the Welsh valleys, and learned his music in the chapel....I didn't pick up on it until around 1970.

They are the best of Velvet Underground & Nico (some others okay too), however Lou Reed's solo stuff afterwards is fucking class too. Title: Re: 40th anniversary...

You silly boy, it's a masterpiece. I can do a great nico impression, I'm doing it now, but you can't hear it cos technology hasn't advanced that far. Trust me though, it's spot on.

Title: 40th anniversary... Post by: sonic youth on Wednesday, October 17, 2007, 22:03:58 loaded is a great album, mainly because there is no nico.
john cale's solo stuff is well worth listening to as well. Title: 40th anniversary... Post by: Bushey Boy on Wednesday, October 17, 2007, 22:05:31 I like Mika
