This album has become a definitive recording of the early 1970's. Not only because it represents what could be achieved with live recorded albums in terms of capturing the warmth, spirit, and immediacy of a good performance, but of the superlative Velvets material contained within it. It features sweetly beautiful moments in the ballads i.e. "Pale Blue Eyes' and a more terrifying kind of beauty within the cranked up dissonant skronk of 'What Goes On', 'Rock and Roll', and 'White Light Whit Heat'. The exultation achieved in some of the latter probably launched a million peak experiences and prompted several generations of musicians wanting to achieve the same effect within their own work. The fact that some of the tunes on this album originated from an audience recording gives those pieces a unique lo-fi charm, with the occasional obscure vocal only adding to such. Quite simply this is a classic record of classic post-John Cale performances captured not far off a year before Lou Reed walked out for good in August 1970. This album is worth procuring for experiencing the warmth in it, let alone for the magic encompassed in it, and not least the sublime version of 'Ocean', a true Velvets gem, which was never released during the Velvet Underground's short life between 1966 and 1970. Listening to this fine record again though it gains an added poignancy with the departure of Lou Reed from this mortal coil on October 27th, 2013.
