The Velvet Underground Live At Max's Kansas City

description

Reissued 12" vinyl LP record of The Velvet Underground playing live At Max's Kansas City, New York City, 1970. "In the summer of 1970, the Velvet Underground played an extended engagement at the renowned New York restaurant-club-focal point, Max's Kansas City. One night during that summer, Brigid Polk, a long time friend and fan of the Velvets, brought a cassette recorder to Max's to preserve a typical performance for herself. This record is a distillation of the cassette Brigid made that night. (In some ways, this record may be looked at as the first legitimate bootleg album). The sound of the record is surprisingly good, and, of course, is mono. The low price of this album reflects the low recording costs, and is not a reflection on the Velvet Underground's performance -- far from it. Given the fact that the Velvet's have gone through personnel changes in the last couple of years, this album stands as the exacting and valuable record of a special group at a special moment in time and space." -- Mark Meyerson, Coordinator of A & R, Atlantic Records. One of the definitive live documents of the band, originally released in 1972. Tracks include "I'm Waiting For The Man," "Sweet Jane," "Beginning To See The Light," "New Age," "Pale Blue Eyes" and "After Hours." An exact reproduction reissue manufactured by Rhino Records.
