The Velvet Underground - It Was a Pleasure Then

Vocals: Nico
Peel Slowly and See - track #9

[@maurizioantoniovetrugno7150]

Nico’s wailing, the viola drone, the percussive guitar and noise feedback. Pure Velvets

[@jasonober4589]

Who cares about all that...this is nico and the boys at their finest. She sounds like a broken angel.

[@hydeparkdirector2756]

Originally from Nico's SOLO debut, CHELSEA GIRL.

too perfect

[@somercet1]

I liked the part where it was freaking AWESOME.

[@gothic666-punk5]

[@Heitors2Dream]

Nico - Chelsea Girls.

@ivanpope It's kind of a trivial thing to get emotional about.

[@lord_chardak]

I take this beautiful track any day over European Son. I know its not officialy The Velvets, and ES is there with a reason,but imagine this closing The Banana album. Fuckin shivers

[@blackmore4]

The only reason I've been able to figure out for the inclusion of 'European Son' on _anything_ is... mischievous sonic sabotage! I always program it out.

[@aaaaaaaaaajgvgjyc]

@ivanpope Yeah, but this recording is from the Peel Slowly and See boxset, which is a Velvet Underground release.

[@portabletiger]

@Ivan Pope: Lou Reed is on there too.

[@somercet1]

'Nico, Reed and Cale co-wrote one song, "It Was a Pleasure Then."'

[@reallyhappytrees]

Written-By - John Cale, Lou Reed, Nico Discogs

[@ivanpope]

But it's still not a Velvet Underground track. It's pure Nico and it's upsetting to see it always listed as a Velvets song.

[@ivanpope]

It's just Nico and John Cale, not the Velvets

[@jasonjohnson3564]

This is a reworking of an improv piece that the Velvets used to play in the EPI shows, it's got Lou Reed, John Cale, and Nico on it - so it is a Velvets track!

[@RaifLisko]

Nico's voice is very unique and a nice addition to TVU's first album. But she's never created a thing in her life.

[@pieterkock695]

uh... what? she wrote many many songs in her life... are you a troll?
