Edie Sedgwick - Very Romantic Purple Velvet Edition
Loading...
Uploaded by MowgliX on Mar 11, 2011
This is in memory of a wonderful girl who shared this little planet with us once, far away in the 1960s and who deserved a much better life. I think Lou Reed intended this song as a romantic tribute to Edie, because though there are some pretty hard words there, you can hear the lyrical burning love in every single note, and there is no way to hide or deny it.

This song is from 1969: The Velvet Underground Live, and it was recorded in Dallas, Texas and San Francisco, California in 1969, but it wasn't released (by Mercury Records, as a double LP) until 1974, then re-released in 1988 as two separate CDs. This song, I believe, is from the Dallas gig. I love the power of that guitar sound!

@ChrissieBana I love it too. This was recorded on October 19, 1969 at a club called End of Cole Ave. in Dallas, Texas. But it was only released by Mercury in September, 1974. It's a miracle the tapes survived, considering that so much else was lost at the time, unless there is stuff sitting in somebody's attic. It would be fun to know what musical treasures Lou Reed has in his basement, and what photos or film clips exist from the Factory days that we haven't seen yet.
