The Velvet Underground

Album Rating: 93.10
(931/10)

Yes, this 1969 album is intentionally a more commercial sound than the brilliant, Nico assisted, 1967 effort. Yes, as a body of art it is inferior. Yes, it’s not technically as good. But, as much I love Velvet Underground & Nico, I prefer the highs of this 1969 album and there are no lows.

1. "Candy Says" Yule - 93
2. "What Goes On" Reed - 95
3. "Some Kinda Love" Reed - 81
4. "Pale Blue Eyes" Reed - 99
5. "Jesus" Reed with Yule - 90
6. "Beginning to See the Light" Reed - 100
7. "I'm Set Free" Reed - 99
8. "That's the Story of My Life" Reed - 87
9. "The Murder Mystery" Reed, Morrison, Yule, and Tucker - 92
10. "After Hours" Tucker - 95 [First added to this chart: 03/24/2021]

(356/4)

I like a good Isaac Hayes monologue. But 8:40 of, admittedly smooth Hayes musings on the final track (‘By The Time I Get To Phoenix’) is too much even for me. It’s 20% of the album. Without it this could have been my favourite album of all time and it is still right up there.
