BATMAN/DRACULA

Excerpt two - 2000 superimpositions and cutup projections of Andy Warhol and John Palmer's 1964 footage set to "The Nothing Song" by the Velvet Underground & Nico, Exploding Plastic Inevitable - Live '66. Hopefully they'll put out a bootleg series cd set of it, as this improv goes on three times as long and is gorgeous beyond belief.

Not for resale, release, or redemption. No rights or reservations implied. Apologies extended and hopefully accepted. Go to that museum mentioned in the corner, demand the real thing released.

can this track be found in audio format on a record or something?

[terminalpictures]

complete track is on various Columbus '66 bootlegs... online and about. Really should be released officially as volume 2 of the bootleg series along with the incredible Gymnasium set.

comparing the VU to the likes of REM and U2 is like comparing steak and ice cream to vomit that's got rotting goldfish, dandruff, and old people feces in it. I mean, seriously. Develop some sort of brain.

[ZenPapageno]

People greatly underestimated them as musicians because they deliberately did things "wrong" -- much more so than other rock bands.

A good example of how Reed grew as a guitarist:: the Songs for Drella clips.

Perhaps we should just accept that this is a beautiful piece of art, sans history, sans context, sans criticism.
