This transfer goes out to Christian! I hope everything is ok and you are doing well! I ask that everyone downloading this say a goodwill prayer for him.

The sound isn't all that bad. An AUD recording with some tape hiss and a bit heavy on the lower end. I'd rate it a "B." You can hear all the instruments, make out all the words, and there is little to no distortion. To the best of my knowledge, this show has never circulated on CD-R. This is a direct digital transfer with no filters used. The sound of this recording is exactly what you get on the cassette.

I now run all of my analog-to-digital recordings through Peak4's "Remove DC Offset" tool. From the Peak4 manual: "Peak4 will scan the left and right channels of a stereo file independently. DC Offset is usually caused by problems in the analog to digital conversion process. The result is that the waveform is not centered on the base line ? it is offset either higher or lower than the center line."


Cover-art is included, but it could use some updating!

THE VELVET UNDERGROUND AND NICO (A SYMPHONY OF SOUND)

Andy Warhol, B&W, sound, 16 mm, 67 min, Jan. 1966

Featuring: The Velvet Underground & Nico, Ari Boulogne (Nico's son); appearances by Gerard Malanga, Billy Name, Stephen Shore, Andy Warhol, the New York Police, and others.

Music: The Velvet Underground & Nico
this film was shown at the 1990 Fondation Cartier exhibition. A 6'20 excerpt was broadcasted June 8, 1991 on french cultural TV channel La Sept after the Songs For Drella video.

****************************************************
"The Velvet Underground and Nico is a portrait of the band, recorded during a practice session at the Factory; apparently shot in January1966, it shows the goup rehearsing for what was probably their opening at the Film-Makers' Cinematheque in February. The music is an instrumental number; Nico, the German singer and actress whom Warhol introduced into the band, sits on a stool and bangs a tambourine, while her son Ari plays on the floor at her feet. The two reels contain a great deal of wild camerawork and psychedelic zooming, which indicates that this film was intended for exhibition, probably in double-screen, behind the Velvet Undergound on stage. It is easy to imagine how this footage might have looked projected in a large, crowded theater in an atmos phere of deafining music, wild dancing, and strobe lighting.

As if to authenticate the film's countercultural status, the second reel documents the arrival of the New York City police during the filming, apparently in response to a telephoned complaint about the noise level at the Factory. After a disarmingly self-conscious cop appears on screen to adjust the amplifier, the rehearsal is stopped, and the camera pulls back to show the deep space of the studio-one of the few documentary of the Factory in Warhol's films-where Warhol is seen talking with the police while the Velvets, Gerard Malanga, Billy Name, and other Factory regulars mill around."

Well, I'm getting it downloading, although it is going VERY slowly. I'm just going to see what happens with it -- Maybe I'll get lucky!

[GroovyMusic]

You should have it already...along with all the rest of the video footage

Why?

Because other people on this forum do

There's a big illusion at this place that getting all this stuff is a long, drawn-out process...
