Review: Brian Eno once said that only a hundred people bought Velvet Underground records when they first came out, but those hundred people all went out and formed their own bands. The rest, of course, is history; the Velvet Underground was the catalyst that helped spark punk rock, and began the growth of an alternative branch within rock and roll's grand family tree. VU's was an unparalleled glimpse into the Summer Of Love's alter ego, complete with graphic, unapologetic descriptions of intravenous drug-use and risque sexual situations. Their 1967 debut, VELVET UNDERGROUND & NICO, was a tour de force that may never be equaled for its sheer radicalism in the face of rock convention.
Vinyl Condition has been downgraded from EX to VG+.
Side one plays well save for occasional surface noise. Side two has a click almost thoughout. If anyone wants to retract theior bid for this reason, please contact me and I will cancel it. Thank you and sorry for the initial misinfo
