The Velvet Forum

Still reeling from the news. I don't remember the stages of depression but I'm definitely still in denial so maybe for me there's only one stage? :cry: One thing I have often wondered about is Bettye Kronstadt. I have read too many books about Lou and the VU and it seems the one constant is that ...

I am shocked despite the fact that he had a near death experience early this year. Only yesterday I saw a post concerning Lou's health http://loureedforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=1817&sid=cbf14de679443873ef7a59adb7ce4462 I had a bad feeling and thought his color didn't look good at all. Seemed like ...

Anyone know where I can download this. Been listening to some old boots and my 'Ossi Park' sounds a tad fast.

Been looking for a tribute to the VU for at least 8 years since I originally started this trend. One that has eluded me for a while is 'Les Enfants Du Velvet.' Finally found it in http://apoxonrox.blogspot.com/2007/02/les-enfants-du-velvet-va-1985.html. Available for download in http://www ...

While I would have preferred a collaboration with say Sonic Youth as I never got into Metallica, what I've heard I like. I just may ...

Here's a few more: Boy With the Lou Reed Eyes by The Lisa Marr Experiment Hey, Lou Reed by Glacial (not the same song as the one by The Servants) Lou Reed by Didjits Lou Reed by Pink Grease Lou Reed In My City by Love Of Lesbian Lou Reed Says by Korea Campfire Lou Reed's Berlin by Rob Lynch Lou Reed ...

If anyone out there that has to have everything still doesn't have RE-VU, it is posted on Demonoid. Information copied and pasted below: The Velvet Underground RE-VU presented by Purple Chick DISC ONE January 25(?), 1972 Bataclan rehearsals John Cale, Nico, Lou Reed 1: intro 2: Pale Blue Eyes 3 ...

It's a shame there's no way to keep the recording levels close. That was the only downside for me. As a VU fan, you sure wanna ...

MAN OH MAN! Forever I have wanted to score a Sally Tour with some of the songs I love like 'New York Stars.' Now if only I can find one with Billy and Ennui.

Does anyone have Lou at Glastonbury '92 aka 'Farm Hassle?'
Received a faulty disc in my last cd-r trade and would like to get a clean copy.
Thanks.
