"White Light / White Heat" by The Velvet Underground
CLASSIC ALBUM OF THE WEEK
The Velvet Underground "White Light / White Heat" 1968 (USA)
This is the most extreme of the Velvet Underground's four classic LP's in so many ways: the noisiest, the most experimental, and with Lou Reed's filthiest (and funniest) lyrics. It still sounds extreme almost 40 years after it was recorded!
