Cheers !

Nice, thanks. I've got this already, but it's such a brilliant thing that it's always worth having. There's a couple of takes on this version that I prefer to the other one, almost to the point of prefering this version over the standard.

yeah thanks, i heard a lot about this record, its a lucky bastard from montreal who found it, i was always curious too hear it so this is very appreciated indeed

a friend linked me to this a while back, but kudos anyway.

Lou Reed & Nico: The Bedroom Tape

 

Lou Reed and Nico rehearsing in Nico's hotel room. Lots of false starts, very loose. Strictly for the following categories of persons:
(a) Velvet Underground hardcore fans.
(b) Rock Historians.
(c) Those of you whose fathers were very much and are still probably in love with Nico (hint: Christmas gift).
(d) Those of you who'll never bid for this.
(e) All those in (a) to (d) who own earphones other than ipod stock earbuds and equivalent.


All Tomorrow's Parties (various attempts)
These Days (various attempts)
I'll Keep It With Mine (various attempts)
Little Sister (various attempts)
All Tomorrow's Parties (one attempt)
I'll Be Your Mirror (one attempt)
Femme Fatale (one attempt)
I'll Keep It With Mine (various attempts)
Little Queenie (one attempt)
Little Sister 2 (various attempts)
All Tomorrow's Parties 2 (various attempts)
Somebody (one attempt)

Flacs for these exist on the series of tubes. Go find them if you are interested.

Nico: Live at Ronnie Scott's, London, April 8, 1985.

 

If eye-witness accounts from my vinyl quest are anything to go buy, there appears to be a resurgence of interest in Nico, and rightly so. You kinda get sick of talking music with your friends and having everyone mention her in connection with those three songs on the seminal The Velvet Underground and Nico.

Nico, Live at Ronnie Scott's, London, April 8, 1985.

...got the acetate from luxinterior's link, the bedroom tape from dime (flac), but thanks, porkm, for scoping out the Nico show to add to the couple of others I have. I'm assuming that if someone added it to their blog then it's a soundboard or good audience recording...

nice - did yo yoink lee's tape off of his Moogerfooger?
