The Velvet Underground - Velvet Underground

A Velvet Underground classic

Third album by the band, The Velvet Underground distinguishes itself from the previous albums by a more acoustic approach, a quieter and a more contemplative ambience... particularly contrasting after the frenzied assault of White Light / White Heat.

Recorded after the departure of the progressive John Cale (viola), the album The Velvet Underground was instead centered around Lou Reed. The austerity of the production reveals honest and expressive songs, interpreted with calm and optimism, while retaining the experimental side of the group.
