VELVET UNDERGROUND & NICO The Velvet Underground &
Nico (UK/EU remastered edition of the iconic debut album by
the legendary New York art-rock group, pressed on
heavyweight black vinyl and presented inside a
gatefold picture sleeve withreplica 'peelable banana'
cover artwork designed by Andy Warhol. First released
in 1967, The Velvet Underground & Nico was a sonic
revolution that fused gritty street realism with avant-garde
experimentation. Produced by Andy Warhol and featuring
vocals from German singer Nico, this album pushed lyrical
boundaries, tackling themes of addiction, sexuality, and urban
isolation - all while introducing a minimalist, noise-driven
sound that would go on to influence generations. Though
largely ignored upon its initial release, the album became a
cornerstone of alternative music, revered today as one of the
greatest and most influential records of all time!)

| Tracklisting / Additional Info: |
Few albums have left a deeper mark on rock music than The Velvet Underground & Nico - a raw, radical fusion of art and sound that shattered boundaries and reshaped underground culture. Produced by Andy Warhol and featuring German chanteuse Nico, this 1967 debut is a sonic collision of garage rock, avant-garde noise, and striking lyrical realism, touching on taboo themes like addiction, sexuality, and urban alienation.
Featuring classics like Heroin, I'm Waiting for the Man, and Sunday Morning, this record pairs Lou Reed's pop instincts with John Cale's experimental edge and Moe Tucker's stripped-back percussion - all wrapped in Warhol's iconic banana sleeve.
