One would be hard-pressed to name a rock album whose influence has been as broad and pervasive
as The Velvet Underground & Nico. While it reportedly took over a decade for the album's sales to crack
six figures, glam, punk, new wave, goth, noise, and nearly every other left-of-center rock movement
owes an audible debt to this set. While The Velvet Underground had as distinctive a sound as any band,
what's most surprising about this album is its diversity. Here, the Velvets dipped their toes
into dreamy pop ("Sunday Morning"), tough garage rock ("Waiting for the Man"),
stripped-down R&B ("There She Goes Again"), and understated love songs ("I'll Be Your Mirror")
when they weren't busy creating sounds without pop precedent.
Lou Reed's lyrical exploration of drugs and kinky sex (then risky stuff in film and literature, let alone "teen music")
always received the most press attention, but the music Reed, John Cale, Sterling Morrison,
and Maureen Tucker played was as radical as the words they accompanied.
Few rock albums are as important as The Velvet Underground & Nico,
and fewer still have lost so little of their power to surprise
and intrigue more than 40 years after first hitting the racks ...(All Music)
