Taken from original acetate version. Every effort has been made to clean up the sound, but also keep the feel.
"THE MOST INFLUENTIAL DEBUT ALBUM"
AVAILABLE FOR THE FIRST TIME, IN IT'S ORIGINAL FORMAT...
What your holding in you're hand is what the first Velvet Underground album would have
sounded like had it not been rejected by the powers that be.
Andy Warhol's intention was to capitalise on the buzz surrounding the bands debut gigs under the
guise of the Exploding Plastic Inevitable shows. A music - art - freak out - happening. Andy,
wanting to keep the bands abrasive sound and seedy subject matter, arranged for a session at a
run down New York studio called Scepter Studio's, under the watchful eye of a Mr Norman Dolph.
Payment for the four day recording session in April 1966 was one of Andy's paintings. Which in
time would prove very financially rewarding for Mr Dolph.
