OU Notes: This is the unedited, unfiltered, full-file All Tomorrows Parties bootleg. Here is the story...
Back in the prehistoric days, before torrents and FTP, was this thing called "trading CD's thru the mail." One of the guys who I traded with said he had something very special if I'd like to hear it, on the condition that I never trade it until he said it was OK to. He sent me this! Someone who had access to the CD recorded it and made a copy for himself and a friend. That friend made me a copy, which is where these files were extracted from.
Now, I dated this really strange chick for a while after meeting her one night after a gig in Luxembourg. Many of you know her as Rosie Lee. She was in a band called the Fluffernutter Devices and was a HUGE fan of the VU. She asked if she could have a copy of this disc, so I converted it so she could play it on her portable player on her band's van. It was this lossy copy that made it onto the site a while back and it was from these lossy tracks that Nothing Songs put out one of their bullshite compilations.
(I'd like to point out that quite some time ago, just before I met Rosie actually, the person who provided me this disk stated that it was OK to circulate it.)
So, anyone who purchased the Nothing Songs set containing these tracks is actually listening to MP3's converted to MP4's. I saw some idiot paid over $100 on ePay for a bootleg of these tracks. What an idiot!* OU Comments, not my own ;)

Calling that person an idiot seems a little harsh. Some of us are just more hardcore fans than others. Thank you for sharing this to all of us can enjoy it for free!! That's what makes your work invaluable...

Recorded by Andy Warhol just a week after the German actress Nico had arrived in America. This tape features what may have been the first musical collaboration between her and the Velvet Underground. The tapes feature many casual moments of unstructured jamming common to rock band rehearsals. Most of this material falls in line with what can be assumed to be influences of the key members; Older Blues, R&B, Rockabilly etc. However, there is one time on the tapes when either Lou Reed or Sterling Morrison can be heard playing the lead intro to "Day Tripper" by the Beatles. While this may seem like a standard today, it was a 4 month old song when the tape was made. On Track two, Lou Reed can be heard teaching lyrics to Nico while the rest of the band plays in the background. The lyrics are to the song "Venus In Furs." Track 11 features the whole band with Nico attempting to sing the song "There She Goes Again." They try several times to find a key that suits Nico's voice. Nico tries many times to vocalize lyrics that prove to be too fast for her broken English to master. These problems evidently were never solved, as the song appears on the first album with Lou Reed singing lead - not Nico.
European Son is a killer
