The Velvet Underground & Nico
Very rare and essential 1967 US East Coast press blue & silver Verve label 11-track stereo LP, housed in the legendary Andy Warhol pasted gatefold sleeve with unpeeled banana sticker & no torso image on theback [airbrushed]. The label is a large ‘t’ blue & silver Verve design with ‘Side 1’ & ‘2’ to the lower left [East Coast design] & hand scratched matrices in the run-offs. This is a wonderful one previous owner copy. The iconic sleeve grades VG/VG+ as there is some foxing evident, a tiny area of paper loss to the bottom right-hand corner, a little corner-wear/sticker mark with minimal wear to the inner spread. However, there are no deletion cuts, no writing or creasing with the banana remaining unpeeled. The spine is clear as day & the panels remain a wonderful off white. The vinyl is superb. It is virtually impossible to find a copy of this album in any condition let alone one that shows almost no signs of play. Yes, there are some very faint hairlines in the odd area on close inspection but these are rendered purely cosmetic with the vinyl grading a healthy Excellent all round. Highly Recommended V6-5008

Mint condition - a top copy!) VELVET UNDERGROUND Squeeze (1983 UK second issue of the 1972
11-track LP, a very unusual footnote to the Velvet's career in that this
seldom seen album features none of the original members! Mo Tucker
toured with the band during this period but left shortly before the
album was recorded, all songs are written & sung by Doug Yule, who
featured heavily on the band's previous album Loaded, & all drumming
duties are performed by a certain Ian Paice of Deep Purple. The sleeve
shows a little wear (mainly to edges) & the vinyl looks barely played)EIL.COM Favourite Music Update Rare CDs, CD Singles, Rare Records, Vinyl Records, Albums and Music
