UNLOADED


Aquarium Drunkard has posted another compilation variation of The Velvet Underground's Loaded this morning . . . . . . . . I bought 'Loaded' when it came out and didn't even note that John Cale was gone . . . . . we couldn't follow the machinations of the Lou and John exhausting arguments but it had the name of the band on so I thought it was okay. It was and I still love Loaded but above all still love John and have followed everything he has done since . . . . . . 






Aquarium Drunkard says:

Loaded has been rightly celebrated plenty over the decades, but what the hell, let’s celebrate it a little more. This latest Unearthed mix cobbles together an alternate version of the LP via some tasty live recordings, rehearsal tapes, backstage jams and other obscurities. Recording quality varies wildly, performance quality is great throughout. Heavenly wine & roses await.

check it out here . . . . .
