The Velvet Underground
The Velvet Underground

I think this is one of those albums that is hard to listen to out of context of where The Velvet Underground were at the time. I watched a Todd Haynes documentary on the band on Apple TV and have a renewed appreciation, especially of Lou Reed and John Cale (who is not on this album). This album is slow but lyrically interesting and exhibits some of Reed's experimentation after asking Cale to leave the band. I am looking forward to seeing more of Reed's and Cale's work on this list.
