3/5's of the Velvet Underground is better than none at all: Amazing footage of Lou, John & Nico at Le Bataclan 1972

This is amazing and a must see for fans of the Velvet Underground - fantastic footage shot in France in 1972. It marked the occasion of the first appearance together of Lou Reed, John Cale & Nico, since the break up of the band that these three appeared on stage together. Recordings have been bootlegged over the years (now available legally), but I've never seen the footage. Just amazing! Unfortunately I can't post it here as embedding has been disabled, but you can see it here on YouTube.

New Velvet Underground boxset coming soon from Sundazed
It appears Sundazed Records has been busy busy busy putting together what looks like to be a beautiful new vinyl box for the Velvet Underground. According to the text above it will include the first three albums, a definitive collection of recordings made for the band's fourth & unfinished LP for MGM, and the first solo album by Nico. More to come...it seems the label hasn't formally announced this yet other than on their Facebook page.
Between this and the upcoming new Mingus box from Mosaic, it's going to be an expensive autumn...good thing my birthday is coming up!

Two minutes with Andy & Nico in the Factory
Bedazzled comes up with more hip French footage. This time its two minutes inside the Factory with Andy Warhol & Nico. There's quite a bit of film out there with the same subject matter, of course, but I've never seen it shot this way. You really get a good feel of how the place looked & felt - even in black & white.
