God, you're right

Here we go again thank you Lou and friends God bless

Exactly! It was a Triumph! Their short Tour of Europe was a big success! They were received like conquering heroes over there. Which makes me think they were better off moving to Europe and would have had a longer and successful career if they had moved to London or Paris. Maybe even Frankfurt. The European audiences were incredibly devoted and appreciated them better that in the US. Here they couldn’t get arrested. There they were playing sold out shows and encores. A big difference! Well, at least they finally got a taste of what popular success would be like. Here I never heard any VU song on the radio except Sweet Jane solo Lou Reed. In Europe, they probably would have gotten some airplay even. This recording is great and now it’s rock history!

You’re right and probably because they didn’t try to sound like the records. The songs sounded familiar and fresh. But I’m not sure the total rephrasing of Lou’s singing of Venus in Furs. Loved every note of the band’s playing but Lou did too much speech-singing on Venus for my tastes. Oh, Television did some solid reunion gigs-- as did Rocket from the Tombs. Check out Rocket Redux if you cotton to David Thomas, Cheetah etc.

The main architect of their then groundbreaking sound on TVU&N and WL/WH.

Yes indeed. Pound for pound, Cale’s solo albums blow Reed’s out of the water.

Reed is the real soul of this band ( he wrote almost all of the songs ) . Cale is a sort of painter on Reed s songs , and that s very important too . His album Paris 1919 is great !!

And nobody says "thank you" better.

Mo Tucker would tell you herself, it's her AND Sterling Morrison on rhythm guitar that keep it all together!

That left hand...

they all look great as if they are youger...

Vrdd

What a treat watching Mo

Amen!

Most unusual drummer of all time, but absolutely perfect for VU. Don't forget her vocals on After Hours!!✌

Personnel The Velvet Underground John Cale - bass guitar, keyboards, viola, backing vocals, lead vocal on "All Tomorrow's Parties", "The Gift", "Femme Fatale" and "I'm Waiting for the Man" Sterling Morrison - rhythm and lead guitar, bass guitar, backing vocals Lou Reed - lead and rhythm guitar, lead vocals Maureen Tucker - percussion, keyboards on "Black Angel's Death Song", lead vocal on "After Hours" and "I'm Sticking with You"

Yes I'm agree with you . technology is good .like matrix depends what you want to choose

Uncle Lou .... The original punker !!!!!

This was released on CD & Video Tape back in 1993 then on DVD in 2006. You could've bought it back then like the rest of us instead of waiting for the internet to be invented.

@@SaintMartins i did.... on DvD

yeah,there was internet in 93 but i saw it on a VHS tape back then.

Mate.....how good is that!!! I saw Lou perform solo in 95.....I had no idea who he was....I was 15. He was performing at the Alternative Nation Festival in Melbourne, Australia. I was there to see Primus, NIN, and Bodycount 🤣 While wandering around I came across this dude with an electric guitar and his incredible songs - I was captivated and had no idea why, but it resonated and I've been listening to him and the band ever since. I got to see an absolutely uncompromising beautiful and legendary performer without even realising!

I understand where you are coming from but in 1993 U2 were one of the biggest bands on the planet and they had a helluva lot of respect for Lou and the VU. If you watched U2's Live Aid set in '85 they featured Walk on the Wild Side & Satelite of Love - in truth, U2 were in awe of the VU's. Not sure there was any shame there - total admiration would be kinder.

it seems, you were close: de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Live_MCMXCIII

Really? Lous vocals are a mess and he seems like (and later confirmed) that he doesn’t want to be there at all

@@georgestetson5572 bs

@@georgestetson5572 not true that he didnt' want to be there. And not true his vocals are a mess. He sounds like Lou Reed Live.

@nameless Lou actually is having a good time as any real musician could tell you

and sterling morrison

They were way outside the mainstream in the US, which is why they were ignored. That, and the glorification of heroin. And as if Andy Warhol were more than an object of worship for a very small coterie of freaks who made a consciously fake "thing" of being "different" as if that made one 'hip".

seen them in Bologna and it was not sold out at all

love what they do to clock time, hey, we are not machines, we stops & we starts & we pause... the dance between striking a chord...& letting it fade to silence...making it up as they go along

Awkward in what way?

Ever meet someone who would never have been described as Mr. Warmth to start with add an artistic aesthetic that hates everything anyone did but themselves and maybe two mentors/influences(D. Schwartz and A. Warhol), now let them do a 96 hour run on meth till they had to slow down with some smack but they did so much smack they had to do more meth to be able to function, now imagine having to be around that person after they'd been living that sort of lifestyle for months on end, awkward in that way. At least that's what he was like when I knew him and that was only because I was friends with another early member of the band.

Actually they did, they performed at the RnR Hall, a new song of all things!, but Sterling died, and since it was Lou and Sterling who started the band, Im hardly surprised that nothing much happened afterwards.

If you want to hear the songs as they were recorded, put on the record. These people have grown older, married, had children and friends and families have died. These songs should not sound the same as they did nearly 40 years earlier.

michael thompson That's exactly how it should be. They aren't like The Rolling Stones who have constantly been together for half a decade. The Stones have almost become like a karaoke band. I love them but everyone knows every song. I personally think the point of live music is to NOT hear a recreation of the record but to hear the band as they are. Which can change on any given day.

I liken her to a band like ZZ top: is Frank Beard a flashy drummer? Nahhh!!! But, their music doesn't usually call for that, whatsoever. But, he's rock solid at all times.

Do you mean that his songs have weird uncalculable time changes or that he has bad rhythm? Cuz I've never really thought about that

@@blistabliss Lou Reed's timing is often not on point at all. he's dragging and rushing at the same time. any musician can tell you that. but who cares? no one can play like him and I think he's a fantastic rhythm guitar player.

@@madvincent9647 how can a person who’s constantly both dragging and rushing be a great rhythm player

@@mrbenoit5018 It's quantum shit. Don't worry about it.

Moe Tucker needs more cowbell.

Me, too! Never heard him til yesterday, and now, well, he's all I listen to

I have seen Moe three Times in small concerts in the 80 s Once i was speaking with her for some minutes , She was very friendly !

She needs to write a book of her experiences.

Steve Morris from Joy Division says the same...

Strongly disagree ! I love The Beatles, The Rolling Stones AND Velvet Underground. Different music; I'm eclectic. Maybe you like Oasis... (Sorry I don't like them).

I'd say they are second only to The Beatles (and maybe Bowie)

I'd say who gives a fuck either way.

Personally I think they're way better than The Stones and The Beatles combined.

N#1 Stones,N#2Velvet Under,N#3Beatles my opinione

Much appreciated

Hey Nico doesn't play in this at all.

Are You Just listing the album versions

​@@publicspace234 You're right. I just made a copy of a list posted by someone else to make it more visible and I also added a link to the 'Sweet Jane' video which was missing in this one. It's corrected now.

​​@@publicspace234she was dead, died in 1987.

Me too. A true great

Mo really lays down a beat doesn't she?

Sterling can also rip it on lead guitar... White Light/White Heat

I have the Paris 93 gig on a double CD

Old Lou would have approved

If you have not heard it then listen to the album which is available on all the streaming services and has twice as many songs

@@user-xu4ow3bu6f which one

Their songs also skipped 70s style rock and roll. Way ahead of its time.

Lame junkie hipsters. John Cale did all the work.

@@jamespitoola1954 That’s an interesting perspective. Completely wrong, but interesting.

how so?

@@jamespitoola1954 You are quite the opinionated asshole..

On some kind of love? I thoughts that was really interesting how well he was able to pull off the playing the really abstract chords you can play to a blues

We get it: those who idolize pop stars do so because they haven't lives of their own.

@@jnagarya519 It’s completely fine to feel affection towards the writers, painters, actors, directors, musicians who bring joy and meaning to our lives

@@jnagarya519 who shit in your cereal?

Miss Doug Yule? The most hated person in rock along with Mike Love...

@@goranl2316 Who's MIKE LOVE?

The man who kept Beach Boys going as a parody group when Brian collapsed.

Not sure God had a lot to do with it.

it sounded like a band that was starting to have fun again until old issues reared its ugly head. the fact that they sold out their entire european tour and played their asses off is an accomplishment most bands who reunite would die for.

Well, I wouldn't call Cale's viola basic lineup, but calling him maestro you're spot on. He's been my absolute maestro since fourty years, and he is still going strong in his high ages. One of a kind!

Venía a ver cómo tocan Venus in firus, estoy tan descepcionado, pero bueno... Debbie Harry tiene una versión doblemente mejore.

That song is by far the best in this concert.

Definitely one of the highlights of this show, without a doubt.

top 5 velvet material, heavy af, unexpected, punchy and dramatic

it makes me cry every time i see it again. Cant understand, but all we know why

Brilliant and beyond to the other side See you there one day Lou

Is this the t &c footage?

I bet Keith Richards digs her.

I like to think that they translate all the problems, the hatred, the envy of Lou and all the shit they had into this masterpiece. MAGISTRAL!!!
