  1.  The VELVET UNDERGROUND emerged from the dim world of drugs and sexual perversion, of heroin addiction and the desperate loss of hope that goes with it. Their concern was with death and violence... Oozing evil and lubricity, they made every other group look like kid stuff, Not for the kiddies.

    Their world view was dark and nihilistic at a time when everyone else was singing about peace and flowers... "Sunday Morning" the opener provide a disarmingly sweet balance, and even a specific reassurance: "When you think the night has seen your mind, / That inside you’re twisted and unkind, / Let me stand to show that you are blind- / Please put down your hands, / ‘Cause I see you- / I’ll be your mirror..."
"Sunday Morning" (Reed, Cale) – 2:54
  1.     "I'm Waiting for the Man" – 4:39
        "    Femme Fatale" – 2:38
        "    Venus in Furs" – 5:12
        "    Run Run Run" – 4:22
        "    All Tomorrow's Parties" – 6:00

!!! ATTENTION: UPDATE!  Even More Valuable, this is a "MONO" PROMO w/ 'Torso' back cover.  Error in listing states as a Stereo pressing. There was no stereo yellow Promo pressed. Again: the Rare 1966 MONO  MIXES ( V-5008 -MONO)
