Following the departure of John Cale in 1968, and the addition of Doug Yule on bass, the Velvet Underground released their self-titled third LP in 1969. More subdued and lyrically compassionate than the first two records it is nonetheless equally powerful and many consider this to be the bands finest work. The Velvet Underground certainly features some of Lou Reed's finest song writing from the narcotic beauty of "Candy Says" and "I'm Set Free," to the angular jangle of "What Goes On" and "I'm Beginning To See The Light." Deluxe 180 gram vinyl reissue.
