As well as its lineup change, the record marked a new  style for the Velvets; it was the first album produced and arranged by  the band themselves; as Lou Reed is noted as saying in David Fricke\u2019s  liner notes: \u201cI thought we had to demonstrate the other side of us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Disc 1 includes the album stereo mix of the album by MGM  house engineer Luis Pastor \u201cVal\u201d Valentin, the second features a 1969  pressing, dubbed by Sterling Morrison as The Closet Mix, while the third  disc is the promotional mono mix of the album, including versions of  the first single, What Goes On and Jesus. Disc four is a version of an  un-released album, intended to get the group out of their contract with  MGM: originally created in October 1969 at the Record Plant in New York  City, this release includes 10 previously unheard mixes &#8211; four original  1969 vintage mixes and six new mixes, including Lisa Says and I Can\u2019t  Stand It, and the original 1969 mix of Ocean, which eventually was  re-recorded for the final track on Lou Reed\u2019s 1972 self-titled solo  debut.<\/p>\n<p>The final part of the release cherry picks performances by  the Velvets from their shows at San Francisco\u2019s The Matrix in November  1969. It is the first time these performances have been compiled and  mixed from the original 1969 multi-track recordings made by club manager  Peter Abram, highlights of which are Sister Ray and There She Goes  Again.<\/p>\n<p>The Velvet Underground &#8211; 45<sup>th<\/sup> Anniversary Super Deluxe Edition, is out on 24 November.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Source: The Guardian<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Velvet Underground\u2019s classic 1969 self-titled third album gets a six CD deluxe release to&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[23],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4663","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-music-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4663","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4663"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4663\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4663"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4663"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4663"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
