The Velvet Forum

The First Night This is actually a 23-song collection. CD1 and CD2 trax 1-7 are from the performance. CD2 trax 8-12 are demos/live (you know, Countess from Hong Kong, Real Good Time Together, etc). My guess is that the version circulated on Dime had removed the officially released trax, I'm pretty ...

I'm not saying uncirculated tapes don't exist, but the original question was about the After Hours tapes, which are very common. I've been trading Velvets tapes for around 20 years, and can't recall anything I've ever had that I still don't see in circulation. What is it exactly that you're looking ...

there's really no mystery to the afters hours tapes. they have been in wide circulation for years, and in some cases might only be slightly better sounding than some of the recent remastered CD boots that have been made from them. these tapes are not in the possession of a lucky few people who are ...

the thread "Interesting Warhol Footage" has a link to this on youtube...apparently it's from a documentary on the chelsea hotel.

maybe 'Innocent And Vain' from the album 'The End'

"He is a dangerous creator, a master in his mortal cave..."

I however checked the on-line store at the Andy Warhol Museum -- if anyone should have it, it's them -- and came up with nothing. I therefore presume the CD's OOP. Anyone care to put them on Yousendit or such? The Warhol Museum online store does not sell everything they sell at the museum. You'll ...

i think mentioning that the record was initially a "flop" is a compliment. i bet most music recordings in the archive were wildly popular releases.

You'd think they'd mention its importance or influence or something that would explain its inclusion, but no... They have to call it a flop. Just goes to show that the writer really didn't know much about the subject. the article called the album "seminal" and mentioned that selected works had to ...
