THE VELVET UNDERGROUND The Velvet Underground (Extremely rare 1969 US 10-track 'Special Disc Jockey Record' promotional stereo LP, retail issue pasted picture sleeve. This was their first album without John Cale & the first to feature Lou Reedas sole composer. Being one of the earliest copies of the band's third album, it contains the legendary, possibly erroneously issued, 'Closet' Mix by Lou Reed, rather than the regular Val Valentin Mix that quickly replaced this on subsequent US LPs. The 'Closet' Mix remained unissued in most other countries & on all CD issues. This mix was only officially to see the light of day again on disc four of the 1995 Box Set 'Peel Slowly And See'. The sleeve on this copy shows just a little light edge scuffing & the vinyl remains near 'as new' - A real treat for your ears! SE-4617)#Top 500 Greatest Albums Of All Time
