One-Two-Five

Post by Sheila Klein »

Can you name the one Reed/Velvets song that's been performed by every former member of the group who's had a solo music career? i've posted a set of those versions, along with a few other select ones, to my Probe site: http://philxmilstein.com/probe/

Additionally, the version from Oliver's, Boston, Massachusetts, May 27, 1973 on disc 4 of "Final VU" could count as being from Doug Yule's solo career given that not even Yule considered the band to be the VU at this stage.

That said, of course, Doug's true recorded solo career does seem to be rather limited: with a single - although rather nice - CD:

That's a very entertaining site. Thanks.

Here's an addition to the "bad boys / bad girls" compilation :

Nice. :)
Arguably the versions on Final V.U. from St David's University, Wales 6 Dec 1972 and Oliver's, Boston 27 May 1973, after Moe's departure could count as Doug Yule solo efforts - although the sound quality on both is poor.

But then, I guess, the extent to which Doug had a solo career beyond this was limited to little more than a CD of a live performance in Seattle in 2000, and "Squeeze".
