You're welcome! It's not necessarily the best rip we'll see, but I knew people would be wanting this.

Thanks! I am in US and can't get the guy to reply if he has even shipped it to me yet. By the way, have you heard it yet? Is it REALLY the Gymnasium tapes? Thanks again.

and an interesting tidbit from "Andy Warhol Chronology 1967"
APRIL 7- 8, 1967: THE VELVET UNDERGROUND PLAY THE GYMNASIUM.
The son of the Dom's Polish owner approached Andy Warhol with the idea of a new club in New York called The Gymnasium. The venue, located in the East 70s, was originally a Czechoslovakian health and social club. The gym equipment would be left out for the nightclubbers to use. But without an exclusive lease and a poor location, the club failed. (UT111)
