This was display copy, new and never played - coloured vinyl but not shrink wrapped
Sundazed release "The Velvet Underground Singles 1966–69", a 7 x 7" single box set honouring the legendary New York combo's 7" vinyl output in their rare mono versions. The set features exact reproductions of Velvet Underground singles, two of them with their original picture sleeves. The singles are packaged in a distinctively designed box, along with rare vintage photos and new liner notes by Rolling Stone's David Fricke (who also penned the acclaimed notes for the historic 1995 Velvets CD box set "Peel Slowly And See").
The Velvet Underground Singles 1966–69 also includes two unissued singles, one with a never-released pairing of "White Light/White Heat" backed by "I Heard Her Call My Name," and the other with "Temptation Inside Your Heart" and "Stephanie Says," recorded in the waning days of the band's classic Reed/Cale/Morrison/Tucker lineup and unheard by the public for nearly two decades thereafter. The set's seventh single is a reproduction of a vintage promotional disc, a two-and-a-half minute radio spot promoting the band's eponymous third album and featuring legendary disc jockey Bill 'Rosko' Mercer, with excerpts from "I'm Set Free", "What Goes On" and "Beginning To See The Light", as well as a picture sleeve with an un-airbrushed variation on the album's iconic cover art.
