A Velvet Underground album recorded without Lou Reed, John Cale, Sterling Morrison, or Moe Tucker (who was technically a member of the band still, yet absent from the recording.)
No, this album is written entirely by John Cale's poppy, uninteresting replacement Doug Yule, performed by him and studio musicians and released under the Velvet's name by some tragic flaw in music rights laws.
And while I already have quite an opinion about the album (can you tell?) I'd like to hear it for myself and see what it's all about.
As for my question... has anyone here heard it? What did you think of it? If you pretend its not a VU album is it any good?
