First, some selfish business: Is there any shifty person out there who'll send me an mp3 of the song Alone Again Or by the Damned? I don't want any other version, just the Damned one. My email address is orinanne at gmail dot com. In return, I'll send you whatever song I think you should have, or you can check my Audioscrobbler for a song you

i'm definitely not a big fan of the velvets.
vu and nico has some tolerable tracks. as such it's the only album i own.
i do like lou reed's solo work

transformer
berlin
rock n roll animal
sally can't dance
metal machine music

that period was great
anything else... enh.

The velvets were so influential because everyone who saw them thought "Shit. Even I could do better than this," then started their own bands.

Also, I'm sure Soulseek has the song.

Only if you promise to ask the tough questions.

1. VU never had any bongos on their albums!
2. I've never heard any black music that sounds anything like the Velvets.
3. Nico sucked--but at least she only ever sang 4 songs out of their entire recorded output.
4. It's true, Lou Reed does look like a monkey-skull... and is a shitbag.

1. Well, I hear bongos. The internet seems to agree with me about the presence of bongos on Velvet Underground albums, SO CLEARLY I'M RIGHT ABOUT THEM SUCKING.
2. Fair enough.
3. Fair enough.
4. I probably wouldn't hate the band so much if Lou Reed didn't look like a shrunken head. I'm glad someone else sees it.
