Best band of the 60's, one of the best of all time. I feel like their first three albums will always be a tie for me, and whichever on I have on my chart will always be circumstantial.
AWESOME band. First four albums and VU are all great! If you're new to the band do NOT listen to Squeeze. Horrible album, shouldn't even be called a Velvet's album. It's hardly the same line up which makes it better.
Best druggies band ever
Influential for sure.

Great band ! Wish they'd been around a bit longer...
I don't know what to say about these guys. I loved them at first listen. Great poppy songs on VU&N and great noise on WL/WH. What else do you need?
liking the vu is not about being a hipster...it's about loving their great and timeless songs. where would new york punk rock be without the vu? truely influential - and fab!
Not my favorite cup of tea, but they were hugely influential and quite interesting in a way that only a late 60s band could be.
