"Live 1969--Velvet Underground
Confession: I don't think I knew that this album existed! Was it released back then? How is it?"
It was originally released in the late 70s, I think. It was recorded from shows in Austin, TX and San Francisco. The CD version has been split up into two separate discs, cleverly titled "Vol. 1" and "Vol. 2". A couple of songs overlap, but they are different versions. The liner notes are WAY cool, i.e. "What goes through a young mother's mind when she asks her 12 year old daughter, 'Susie, what's the name of that song you are listening to?' to which her daughter replies, 'Heroin' ......I think this is great rock and roll. I think Alexander the Great, Jack the Ripper, F. Scott Fitzgerald, and other rock stars would agree with me...."
