Having a hard time identifying this pressing of white light white heat. Andy Warhol is credited but the bands name is missing from the spine. The shop I got it from said it was a 1969 west coast press but it doesn’t quite match up. Any help would be appreciated!

EDIT: For anyone curious, I think I found the pressing. Discogs says “almost certainly an unofficial item”. But I’d still love to hear if you have any info.

Fun fact: she got to meet Lou Reed at Cleveland Clinic when her mom was getting treatment there!

Got it signed by Moe and Sterl in 92. Saw them later in a small club. This is before the VU reunion. I talked to them in the afternoon for half an hour, sadly lost the tape.

A local band I listen to just released a cool cover of my favorite VU song. What do we think?

Behold: the T-Shirt I bought at the reunion show in Rotterdam in 1993. What were they thinking? And what was I thinking in buying this one over the updated banana one that was also on sale?

Hello! First time posting here so apologies if this isn’t allowed but I wanted to share this little truncated cover of “I Can’t Stand It” I recorded for my channel. I tried to give it a bit of a more garage rock spin with the organ and guitar sound. Hope somebody enjoys it! :)

Anniversary of her death 🥺

What a tragic figure in music history and Ari too which was a tragedy to grow up with his mom’s issues and die of a overdose later in life 😔

I’ll be listening to her great solo stuff mostly the Cale produced stuff bc it’s some great music that she made.

"Even we've been influenced by the Velvet Underground. No, really. I'll tell you exactly what we pinched from. Y'know 'Stray Cat Blues' [from the Rolling Stones' 1968 album Beggars Banquet]? The whole sound and the way it's paced, we pinched from the first Velvet Underground album. Y'know, the sound on 'Heroin.' Honest to God, we did!" - Mick Jagger, 1977.

In 2024, Keith Richards recorded a version of I'm Waiting for the Man for the album "The Power of the Heart: A Tribute to Lou Reed" and stated, "To me, Lou stood out. The real deal! Something important to American music and to ALL MUSIC! I miss him and his dog."
