Their best

Of the four classic VU albums it's the worst, the first three are simply too amazing. That being said, this is still a fantastic album, maybe not quite as memorable but it has some of their best pop hits on it. Sweet Jane and Rock And Roll are wonderfully catchy while still being catchy, and it's still a classic Velvet Underground record.

Velvet Underground go nice. Not up to normal standards, just a nice album with a few good tracks.

Easily the most conventional VU release. The name came from their label's suggestion the album be loaded with hits. The songs owe more to contemporary pop and rock as well as doo wop, soul, country, and blues than any of their other records (especially the first two).

Not good as their early 3 thing, but still good.

One of the easier VU albums to listen to. It's actually quite good.

Some of their best songs (Sweet Jane, Who Loves the Sun, Rock & Roll), but also some of their worst (I Found a Reason is terrible, Cowboy Bill and New Age are okay, but not nearly as good as anything else the band has done). Disappointing to hear no Moe Tucker on drums and the fading number of songs with Lou Reed lead vocals. Even though it's one of those "band breaking up" albums, you don't really get the impression of unspoken conflicts behind the songs, like you do with Let It Be or The Wall.

My 2nd fav VU behind Nico

A mostly great album. Some of VU's more mainstream music. First 4 songs are great! Didn't dig New Age that much.

The VU's second best. Sweet Jane, Rock & Roll, New Age, Oh! Sweet Nuthin & I Found A Reason are all excellent songs. It's less experimental, and more classic-rock, and I think we're all very lucky that the Velvet Underground showed that side of themselves. In the top 20 albums ever.
