I don't know if it's just me going crazy... but listening to this closely enough, you can sometimes hear Jules singing? I don't know. It's great with or without him singing. They're just kicking some jams.
julian was obsessed with the velvets and this sound exactly like it. plus why is everyone getting so defensive because julians not singing? Cant they get some nice jam out sessions? OF course they can. and thats what they did. C'mon people... Think
wowww this is really great, i kinda like the whole no vocals... don't eat me for saying that, i think julian's got a great set of pipes. thanks for putting this up!
@TheAirEnElManana This song is obviously more influenced by VU. The laid back gritty sound was characteristic of them and this song was clearly going for that. The rhythm track is just the way the Velvet Underground would play it. I can hear the Television influence towards the end of the song though.
I think this is more of a Television influence. In fact the strokes sound is more noticeable in Television than in The Velvet Underground. Just listen to Ain't That Nothing or Venus or Marquee Moon. Real strokes influence in those songs.

What the hell are you guys complaining about? There should be more instrumental Strokes songs. Not only that, this is just jamming out. Seldomn will someone improvise lyrics for the sake of interrupting a flow in a song..
how do you know, it sounds just like there earlier shit when they were playing at the NYC clubs. Got any proof?and Squirehorse, are you sure this is them? you said you got it from a bootleg cd.
