    "Peel Slow" ... well, the original artwork, created by Andy Warhol (who also created the Velvet Underground) consisted of a banana that you could actually peel, peel off and ... find the surprise. "The Velvet Underground & Nico" sold only 30,000 copies in the first five years, despite its importance in the history of music. Without that record, perhaps, there would have been no punk, new wave and all the alternative rock of the years to come. A quote from Brian Eno is: "The first Velvet Underground album only sold 10,000 copies, but everyone who bought it formed a band." Greetings from Sicily!

    Warhol did not create the Velvets. Lou Reed and John Cale formed the band in late 1965, and were joined by Sterling Morrison and Angus MacLise. Andy Warhol, became their manager and mentor in 1966. And although credited as producer on TVU&N he had nothing to do with the production, the album was actually produced by Tom Wilson.

    Perfect time to play this perfect song. "Perfect Day" would be a perfect follow-up. There is a great video of it, where everyone under the sun is singing a piece of it. Ad for PBS, I think, or BBC. Lou & Cale wrote a haunting song from Warhol's notebooks called "A Dream" which could have been the model for Radiohead's "Pyramid Song". Very meta. Warhol bitches about Lou not inviting him (Warhol) to his wedding, after all he'd done for Lou. Lots to mine here. Perfect.

He was the first, beginning in early December, 1963, to play "The Beatles" "I Want to Hold Your Hand" and "I Saw Her Standing There". Delmore Schwartz was a promising poet who died young alone in a New York hotel. From reading his stuff it is evident that he had become addicted to amphetamine.

    To get Lou Reed at his rocking best, try his ROCK AND ROLL ANIMAL live album, some of the best guitar playing of the 70s. "Intro/Sweet Jane" or "Heroin". Lou also recorded the most depressing concept album of all time called BERLIN. It is about a boy getting hooked on heroin and slowly dying throughout the record. It's a real bummer.

    Very influential album/band - but only with aconsiderable delay. The album release had been postponed considerably, and on release it was hardly noticed/considered a flop. Velvet Underground were exactly that: an underground band that was pretty much thrashed by critics and neglected by listeners. But later artists listened and picked up a lot from this. Like The Stooges, this was very fundamental for punk and indie rock.

    There's a really good documentary about Andy Warhol--the Andy Warhol Diaries on Netflix. You might "get" him a bit more. His schtick was to take things in our culture that had become meaningless because of too much exposure and give them a fresh look. E.g., the Last Supper by DaVinci--Warhol focused on the face of Christ and his hand that was reaching out. It was very moving and a departure from what I'd ever seen. I actually had to go check the original to see if the hand was really there as Warhol portrayed it. It was, but I had never noticed it before. Warhol, at least in this respect, was following in the footsteps of Marcel DuChamp.

With 32 studio albums released in their lifetime, one of the most challenging, strange, prolific and creative bands in all of music, covering a lot of different sounds and with frequently fascinating lyrics. Good songs to start with would be "New Face In Hell", "Smile", "English Scheme", "Leave The Capitol", "Prole Art Threat", or "Hip Priest" (used in the climactic scene of the movie The Silence Of The Lambs). Unlike any other band you have heard. (Completely copied from an earlier comment I made :) )

    This album sat on the record company's shelf for almost a year while they pushed Frank Zappa's stuff instead. This was made before The Beatles' "Sgt. Pepper's" album. The VU was Lou Reed's baby, the house band for Andy Warhol's factory. There are more aggressive numbers. 'Femme Fatale' is a favorite of mine, sung by Nico. 'Heroin' is devastating. David Bowie got an early copy of this album and was an immediate fan.

    Couple of conext: This is the epitome of so called underground scene of rock n roll (in fact the term 'underground' we use to identify a certain scene and aesthetic comes from the name of this band) born in the 70s in new york. All this people gathered around Andy Warhol. That's where The Velvet was created. There you had Bowie adopting that kind of aesthetic and I would say philosophy (and Bowie also discovered Iggy Pop, who also influenced a lot), and of course Lou Reed (the singer of this band). The couple of characteristics and themes of the scene would be urbanity (New York), weirdnes (the voice of Lou Reed is the epitome of that also), promiscuity (the name of the band isn't casual) but also in the urban reality of NY (travestis, drugs, artsy). That's the word, is very artsy, like this album cover. To make it simpler this guys were wearing black leather jackets when hippies were still around and way before punk.

    This is for sure an iconic album, but please jump right into Lou Reed after the VU. I love the album New Sensations, 1974 (17 years after this Velvet Underground album), with my favorite song being Fly Into the Sun. I never hear it recommended, nor can I find a live video version (anyone?). (Not to be confused with Ride Into the Sun.) I’m a New Yorker of a certain age and have seen Lou Reed a dozen times. I also recommend listening to the memorial concert with so many great musicians singing his songs. We no longer have with us so many awesome musicians😿; I miss Lou Reed, David Bowie, and Joe Strummer (from The Clash) every day. Jerry Garcia, too. And Phil Ochs, a topical/protest songwriter in the ‘60s and ‘70s who you’ll never react to or even listen to. Though you should, his lyrics are poetry and his music beautiful. He wrote hundreds of songs; there’s a lot of history one can learn listening to him. He committed suicide at age 35. So heartbreaking. I miss him most of all.
