Great one of my favourites. I been learning this and now this a 3rd version which sounds closest. What do you think was Sterling's part if any. Could you pitch Lou's vocal ie "there she goes again" his voice is so thick i just can't get it.
That's very nice of you to say that Mo. I have another video in the works but still figuring out a couple of things to ensure I produce the proper goods!
This is superb! At 4:55 you're talking about a chord that took you ages to track down till you heard it in the Beatles' "Day Tripper." While listening, what came to mind was "Come Together" by the Youngbloods, coming out of the chorus. Maybe I'm wrong, you're the musician. Your videos are a tasty treat, Brian, thanks a lot!
I goofed on that one. It's the chord from 'Ticket to ride'. It appears that Young Blood's tune was released in 67; same year as the first Velvets record which was recorded in 66, so I'm not sure how that would work. However, the chord does sound similar.
I love these videos! Does anybody know if John Cale is using standard tuning on his viola? And also what is the tuning for heroin? Beautiful JazzMaster by the way I hope to be able to afford one of those someday. Cheers!
Correct. I talk about this in my other video - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-E_wYhyprmpQ.html The interesting thing about Cochran is that he was one of the first players to dispense with the wound G, meaning he could do more exaggerated string bends. Conversely, it seems the Velvet Underground opted for flat wound strings with a higher gauge and a wound G.
@@briangough7680 Yep. Ive also heard Chuck Berry did it too. Used a banjo string or something for the G or last 3 strings. Never knew about what strings VU used.
Lou stole that opening from Marvin Gaye - Hitch Hike. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-fmClweWITZQ.html Or maybe the Rolling Stones version. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-rUai4j0QrKE.html
