Reviewed in the United States on August 17, 2023
I've never encounted a rock group that glorify hard drugs. Lou Reed expresses his love for Speed and Heroin and goes into great detail about what he feels on these substances. He feels PURE ECSTASY! Other songs he shares his feelings about his personal relationships. Still others he sings about different peoples lives. I don't know much about this group but I like what I hear. And I hear The Velvet Underground.
Reviewed in the United States on September 24, 2009
I found this tape in the trash when I was 13 and, after listening to it until it didn't work anymore, I bought the CD even after buying nearly all their other albums because of its rockin-ness. My impression of it may be influenced by its being my first exposure to The Velvet Underground, but I still enjoy it and think it is the best "best of" I've heard for listenability, and there is not one song that I feel the need to skip over for not being in the mood. It's true it is not representative of everything they've done, but best-of's are often more about the pop-like classics than the artistic scope of a band. If you're curious, I think it's a fine place to start.

This a nice collection of really good songs from the Velvet Underground. Of course it includes Sweet Jane. What wasn't so great was the padded envelope that it was shipped in. The jewel case was cracked and shattered beyond belief.

If you are a fan of the VU then you will like this unless you are a audiophile. Sound quality is average at best. Most people wouldn't even notice.

Timeless music, a must have for any road trip. A gem of American culture and a sound that will take you away. Fast shipment, reliable seller.
