Product description

Dive into the raw, unfiltered energy of The Velvet Underground's formative years with "New York Rehearsal 1966," a captivating snapshot of the band's early rehearsals, recorded at Andy Warhol's iconic Factory in January 1966. This album offers a unique glimpse into the creative process of one of the most influential bands in rock history, capturing the band's proto-punk and art rock sensibilities in their purest form.

The album features 16 tracks, including early renditions of classic songs like "Venus in Furs," "Heroin," and "I'll Be Your Mirror," as well as covers and instrumental pieces that showcase the band's versatility and experimental spirit. From the bluesy "Rhythm & Blues Instrumental" to the raw power of "Heroin," each track offers a glimpse into the band's evolving sound and their fearless approach to music.

"New York Rehearsal 1966" is not just a collection of songs, but a historical document that captures a pivotal moment in The Velvet Underground's career. The album's raw, unpolished sound and the band's improvisational energy make it a fascinating listen for both longtime fans and newcomers alike. With a runtime of over an hour, this album is a testament to the band's enduring influence and their commitment to pushing the boundaries of rock music.

This is a 2019 Reissue Unofficial Release released as a 2LP set.

  • First Release, Skip It

    2 out of 5 stars
    mlypjAugust 14, 2025United KingdomπŸ‡¬πŸ‡§

    I purchased this mail order version upon its initial release. One might say it's historically significant as the first official drop of this content, but it's generally best skipped unless you're a die-hard collector chasing every last item. It's a super low-fidelity, secretive audience recording captured at a public event held at the Andy Warhol Museum, during an exhibit about the band titled All Tomorrow's Parties. 3 tracks mentioned (Walk Alone, Venus In Furs and R&B Instrumental) are notably absent.

  • VU's Pre-EPI Brilliance

    Absolutely fantastic! It's a treat to listen to VU before the EPI era. I enjoyed how it came across on the 50th Anniversary set with the clips of both takes of "There She Goes Again," and it's just as impressive here.

About The Velvet Underground

The Velvet Underground, formed in New York City in 1964, are an American rock band renowned for their experimental and influential music that transcended conventional boundaries. Led by the iconic Lou Reed and featuring the talents of John Cale, Sterling Morrison, and Moe Tucker, the band's provocative lyrics and avant-garde sound laid the groundwork for punk rock, new wave, and alternative music. Their association with Andy Warhol and the New York art scene further cemented their status as cultural pioneers. With a legacy defined by their pioneering approach to rock music, The Velvet Underground's impact resonates through their experimental sound and provocative lyrics, making them one of the most influential bands in rock history. Their debut album, featuring the German singer Nico, is considered a cornerstone of rock and pop music, blending elements of avant-garde, experimental, and proto-punk styles. The band's story is vividly chronicled in the 2021 film "The Velvet Underground," directed by Todd Haynes, which offers a deep dive into their incandescent world and enduring legacy.
