Pretty damn good. Hit or miss, admittedly, but when it hits it's among VU's best work.
This is a very senitimental, but also very chill listening experience. A very different take from their "artsy" debut: "The Velvet Underground and Nico" (1967). While I do like and admire it - and it does have some great songs - it was just a bit noisy. This album is more laid back and tame and it is a sound that I much prefer from The Velvet Underground.
Breathtakingly beautiful songs in the first side. Second side lacks quality.
A deep contemplative breath following the amphetamine fueled parties of the first two records.
Pending on my mood, I think I would like this album more than the album everyone goes goo-goo gaga over. Murder Mystery is genius, What Goes On and Beginning to See the Light get me groovin, and Candy, Jesus, and Pale Blue Eyes are sweet heart speakers.
I think it's VU's least.
This is their most beautiful album, and I love that
Sweet Ballads such as "Candy says","Pale blue eyes"or"Jesus" and Rock numbers like "What goes on" and Experiment of "Muder Mystery". Most of All, my fav track is "I'm set free". sweet guitar of that song is really unique. even maureen's young vocals on "after hours" sounds perfect too.
pretty good but not as good as the debut
One of their best lps, I like Murder Mystery.
Not as strong as VU & N, and somewhat overhyped. Decent, but not the best of everything like so some it is.
