1965 Falling Spikes: a Fake Tape Source/Title: FallingSpikes 1965 The text says: FALLING SPIKES LOU REED, JOHN CALE, STERLING MORRISON, ANGUS MACLISE IN 1965 A NEW YORK BAND CALLED THE PRIMITIVES CHANGED IT'S NAME TO THE WARLOCKS AND THEN TO THE FALLING SPIKES, LATER TO BECOME FAMOUS AS THE VELVET UNDERGROUND. THIS RARE RECORDING FROM 1965 IS THEIR ONLY RECORDED WORK. Actually: it's a tape copy of the "Live at the Boston Tea Party" LP (catalogue Velvet 1, UK, 1985) but the album Side One is the tape B-Side (and Side Two becomes the A-Side). Tracklist (not given on sleeve insert): A-Side B-Side Heroin What Goes On (the rest) Move Right In I Can't Stand It I'm Set Free Candy Says Run Run Run Beginning to See the Light Waiting for the Man White Light/White Heat What Goes On (part) Pale Blue Eyes After Hours Equivalent: Tape 3, VU LIVE - BOSTON TEA PARTY (JAN. 10, 1969) (but it's a loose equivalent). Sound: Bad to Average. Side B is too fast, like the album, with clicks and tape whirrs on "Candy Says" and is basically unlistenable. Side A is average at best. Notes: What a gem this would have been, but it's either a bad joke or a deliberate fraud. The sleeve insert is badly copied and hand-cut with blunt scissors, the text says "IT'S" when it should be "ITS", there is no Cale or Maclise and sloppy copying splits WGO over two sides needlessly with the first part lasting just a few seconds. Side B starts with five minutes of silence and I'm sure WTFM gets cut short. At least it presents the correct running order of the set, unlike the LP. There's an uncredited short jam between CS and BTSTL, as there is on the album, a few bars of rythmic "dum dum da-da dum dum daa" which could be a sound check or a warm up or anything else.

  • The Velvet Underground By: Kao-Ying Chen Shengsheng Xu Makenna Borg Sundeep Dhanju Sarah Lindholm Group Introduction
    The Velvet Underground By: Kao-Ying Chen Shengsheng Xu Makenna Borg Sundeep Dhanju Sarah Lindholm Group Introduction The Velvet Underground helped create one of the first proto-punk songs and paved the path for future songs alike. Our group chose this group because it is one of those groups many people do not pay attention to very often and they are very unique and should be one that people should learn about. Shengsheng Biography The Velvet Underground was an American rock band formed in New York City in 1964. They are also known as The Warlocks and The Falling Spikes. Best-known members: Lou Reed and John Cale. 1967 debut album, “The Velvet Underground & Nico” was named the 13th Greatest Album of All Time, and the “most prophetic rock album ever http://t2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTpZBIJzRM1H- made” by Rolling Stone in 2003. GhQN6gcpQ10MWXGlqkK03oo543ZbNUefuLNAvVRA Ranked #19 on the “100 Greatest Artists of All Time” by Rolling Stone. Shengsheng Biography From 1964-1965: Lou Reed (worked as a songwriter) met John Cale (Welshman who came to United States to study classical music) and they formed, The Primitives. Reed and Cale recruited Sterling Morrison to play the guitar (college classmate of Reed’s) as a replacement for Walter De Maria. Angus MacLise joined as a percussionist to form a group of four. And this quartet was first named The Warlocks, then The Falling Spikes. Introduced by Michael Leigh, the name “The Velvet Underground” was finally adopted by the group in Nov 1965. Shengsheng Biography From 1965-1966: Andy Warhol became the group’s manager.
