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.
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 TH-cam, 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.
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.
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
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 TH-cam anymore but you can faintly hear it in this...th-cam.com/video/EAvkDrkUfoo/w-d-xo.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 TH-cam 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...
Thanks for Nothing
Nothing is everything

Don't walk away in Silence !
she's got everything she needs, she's an artist she don't look back....in silence..
Been a huge Velvet fan for over 50 years. The coolest band ever.
Hi I recommend a song called 'Looking Into The Mirror' By Robert Nix
By far the coolest band ever
I can't listen to normal music the same way that I can listen to this Noting Song, it touches another area of my soul...

Paix what does that even mean? what “different way” do you listen to this song?
haha!x
SINCE A LONG TIME I LOVE VELVET UNDERGROUN D, AND NOW I FOUND SOME NEW STUFF, WHICH IS GREAT FOR THE SOUL TO LISTEN TO
This isn't new.

Is the early stuff not just folky , Dylan-esque until it got Caled ?
Hi I recommend a song called 'Looking Into The Mirror' By Robert Nix
@@ewantaylor483 nope. Don't spread your stupldlty to other people
@@ewantaylor483 Not that kind of folky. More like older, ancient pagan trance music.
@@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 "😂
Thanks for posting this, I’ve never heard it before and I’ve been hooked on Lou Reed and the Velvets for over 40 years.
Me too, my friend · 35 years with the Velvet and I had never heard this song
Me too!
For me its about 45 years😜
The best band ever I can just lay back and drift way listening to them pure mind ectacy
a lovely quiet version of sister ray. Love it.
For me, a deeply spiritual and emotional journey.
düster und magisch
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.
Before Cale left*
thank you

Ya Ya , and THANK YOU!

beautiful raga piece
ain' it???
Absolutely mesmerizing
brilliant absolutely brilliant!
This song has a cadence and rhythm very similar to the early days of Dead Can Dance. Excellent.!!!
Velvet, under, under ground, like a tunnel. To touch the earth
There are sometimes when only the Velvet Underground will do.
First there was Lou and the Velvet - than the Universe - many thanks Lou and The Velvet !

Everything they did seems so effortless …
Drugs
Well, they were the house band for warhol’ Factory. This sounds like they had the electric viola doing a drone carrier wave. So cool

All great music played around the day I was born❤
So ein schöner Song ,Thx a lot

They're lit
riff may be derived from Charlie haden's bass solo on ornette's 'ramblin'. unsconsciouly, that is.
Lou Reed was heavily influenced by Ornette Coleman's music so that's a very real possibility.
this and ocean are something else no?
grazie!!!
was and still top! thanks!!!!!
Wow!

Never heard this----alws liked weird experimental stuff from the '60's,lol.
Another one to fall asleep to, after "Time To Melt" by LARD
the audience at the end is totally shocked
Cale at his best
Me recuerda mucho a lo que hace Yo la tengo! :o
YESSSSSSS

Nothing is no nothing to be.
It may have been at CBGB.
It would be great if there were a point to this, or to Warhol's life in general.
Why?
@@biffDipstick Didn't you used to think it was all going somewhere?
@@harryknackers7892 no. The song title says it all.

There’s no VU without JC.
Nico should’ve been inducted with the Velvets into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.
dude she died like 10 years before they got inducted
It was a pleasure then…
Middlefield afar in hindsight foreshadow now moments

No. Here is Melody Laughter.

They were from the same show. They bookended the show and were essentially the same jam did I to two halves by the rest of the set.
Who sings, Nico?
Who cried when Lou died?
I knew it was the beginning of the end

yes

I thought there psychedelic tracks were shit but there songs were great I don’t get it ??
Who is singing?
Definitely Nico. She's singing through a tremolo effect.
If your're not listing to this song high af, you are not listing to it right.
High on life
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...
I'm listening ing to it right now totally shitfaced. Does that count?.
you havent heard Train Round the Bend until you slow it down a few ticks
I frequently list when lost in music; I also oscillate wildly at times. 😊
