What can possibly be said about this record that hasn’t been said before. It’s a classic, must own LP. No record collection is complete without it. It’s tragic that it wasn’t a Top 40 record when it was released, but it never even came close. No one bought this record when it came out, but everyone who did seemingly started a band and what came of those bands is legendary. Seriously, if you don’t already own this twice over, on at least vinyl and CD, now is the time to find out what everybody’s been talking about for the last 40 odd years. Even Wikipedia gets this one:
”The Velvet Underground & Nico is the debut album by American rock band The Velvet Underground and vocal collaborator Nico. It was originally released in March 1967 by Verve Records. Recorded in 1966 during Andy Warhol's Exploding Plastic Inevitable multimedia event tour, The Velvet Underground & Nico would gain notoriety for its experimentalist performance sensibilities, as well as its focus on controversial subject matter expressed in many of their songs. Though largely ignored upon release, the record has since become one of the most influential and critically acclaimed rock albums in history, appearing at number thirteen on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time as well as being added to the 2006 National Recording Registry by the Librarian of Congress."
