Scepter Studios Sessions

在摇滚史上有一个关于“地下丝绒”(The Velvet Underground)的老笑话：当年几乎没有多少人买乐队的第一张唱片，但这些买了唱片的人在后来都组建了他们自己的乐队。而真正的妙语是“每一位朋克、后朋克和先锋流行艺术家在过去的30年中都欠下了地下丝绒乐队一笔灵感的债务，哪怕只是受到了间接的影响。”在20世纪60年代末期乐队存在的日子里，他们经常被误解、经常被谩骂，但更多的是受到冷遇。不过，“地下丝绒”还是有争议地被认为是美国1965年之后最重要的摇滚乐队，它是70年代和80年代所有白人艺术噪音音乐的源泉，并且为摇滚创作中的暴戾的吉他弹奏以及带刺的现实主义的叙事歌词创作手法定下了一个普遍的标准。 Fans of The Velvet Underground are no stranger to the holy grail that is The Scepter Studio Sessions. The long lost acetate was discovered in 2002 at a Chelsea flea market and purchased for $0.75. The acetate was then sold for $25,000 on Ebay and the rumours started circulating immediately about an official release of the uber rare outtakes. Years passed and finally we have an official repress! The album features different, rougher mixes from the classic 1967 album and three completely different takes of "Venus In furs", "I'm Waiting for the Man," and "Heroin." A true gem with a great story behind it. - See more at: http://turntablelab.com/products/the-velvet-underground-scepter-studio-acetate-lp#sthash.0mepfb2A.dpuf
