Rolling Stone 500 Greatest Albums of All Time - Rated 143/500!

Following the departure of John Cale in 1968, and the addition of Doug Yule on bass, the Velvet Underground released this, 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 "The Couch Album" to be the Velvet Underground's finest work. The Velvet Underground certainly features some of Lou Reed's finest songwriting 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."

"The Velvets began as the black-booted antidote to the flower-power sound of the Sixties; this album turned folk music inside out. Their disillusion, exhaustion and ache is explosive, and the churning rhythm guitar in "What Goes On" could shame lead guitarists." - www.rollingstone.com
