you probably dont give a shit but if you guys are bored like me during the covid times you can watch pretty much all the new movies and series on InstaFlixxer. Have been binge watching with my brother for the last couple of days =)
Literally early velvet underground(check out their demoes) is classical(ie baroque/medieval/renaissance),mininalistic-primitive,ancient and traditional folk type music using electric guitars ,bass and drums that's why their music sounds so timeless and touching as well as a little touch of experimetal textures and sounds . Amen.
@@ewantaylor483 he means traditional folk as he was referring to hundreds or even thousands of years ago Dylan may sound "old" to you But he is hardly old enough to be "traditional "😂
I think this is the thirteenths time I catch myself, listening to this tune since my unexpected discovery about five months ago and it led me to more treasures from this period before Lou left the Velvet Underground.
Thank you! Never heard this one before. I would like to go back in time, just so I could have a look at how dilated were the (eye) pupils of each member of the audience. There were probably only 30 +/- in attendance.
Sounds pretty good after a few whiskeys as well. Over 60yrs old and beats the crap outta anything nowadays. Jim Morrison must've been influenced also as The End sounds a little similar.
@@Fortwentt yall may be 62, and you may be right, but you gotta check out some cool stuff from nowadays too. It's just different because the VU vein was hit, perfected, and blown by the 80s. But check out Pilgrimage by Om and Nightly Trembling by Six organs of Admittance. I think especially that one, and most 6 Organs stuff, will hit this nerve for you.
The Doors were a huge influence on the Velvet Underground. Nico had an affair with Jim and Warhol had a crush on him! He hung out at the factory sometimes and wrote people are strange about them
listening to this i am able to think. i had a few beers. but just got over some really bad pain. still got a twinge. thought i might die from the pain, thought i had cancer or something. i dont know what tyhe hell it is. but better now. this is really cool trance music i dig and am grateful for. Lori play this please. before I die.
I can't make out what Nico is singing, but around 1980 I heard on WBAI a performance by Allen Ginsberg who sang "The Nothing Song". Something between comedy and existential pessimism à la Samuel Beckett. He sang "Monday nothing, Tuesday nothing, Wednesday also nothing, Friday and Saturday much more nothing, Sunday also nothing". First in English, then in Spanish, then perhaps Yiddish. But in each language the melody - a minor-key lament - somehow took on the character of the language, as if it were the culture of origin of the song. I don't recall if he was backed up by the Velvets. Perhaps he also played his squeezebox. I haven't been able to find it. Sound familiar to anybody? Can anybody help me out?
@@dubkebab6307 That's it, dubkebab. Looking briefly at the lyrics I see no credit for Ginsberg as a/the writer, but it sure has his fingerprints on it! Going back to the politics of a generation before the Fugs - that is, A.G. Many thanks! I will listen ASAP.
I've just listened via RU-vid, and for all I know it could very well be a Fugs original composition. But seemed just right for Allen Ginsberg to cover it, or do guest vocals with the band. Is there a Fugs or Ginsberg scholar in the house to give us the straight dope on this burning question? Such fun.
there is another 60s band who had this sound, super similar even because they have been admittedly inspired by the VU , that is parson sound from sweden, most underrated euro impro band imo. thank me later.
Question; what music is playing in the background in the lou reed doc rock and roll heart @ 5mins25 & @1hr 5mins55sec? i`ve asked this question for years and no-one has ever been able to answer...please...please...
@@robertmiller532 on the doc Rock n Roll Heart. Sadly it's not on RU-vid anymore but you can faintly hear it in this...ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-EAvkDrkUfoo.html
@@sodiumlights I know a lot about VU music but not too much about Lou Reeed as a solist, and that music in the background doesnt sound like VU so i bet it is from Lou Reed working with some other guys post VU
You're right. Warhol's life would have been infinitely more meaningful if he had access to RU-vid and could waste his time criticizing people like the great harryknackers7892 instead of leaving an indelible mark on the American pop culture landscape. Truly a missed opportunity.
it´s also good when your not high... but it´s really another thing when you're on acid... taking drugs and listening to music is the ONLY thing that matters...
