I gotta assume this is for that early 1972 Bataclan reunion with Cale, because here they revisit the classics from the first VU LP and Chelsea Girls , trying to figure out the vocal phrasing, pace of the tracks, and just generally mucking around (Lou with a quick little take of Chuck Berry’s Little Queenie in there).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);\"\u003eAs with so many bootlegs, there’s a fun mystery around this. According to the sticker on the cover, Andy Warhol is kicking around in the room too (although I can’t hear him). Were others in his entourage kicking around too? Perhaps Brigid Berlin? And this is a by-catch of her constant tape recording? Or is Andy’s name on the cover just a marketing gimmick? Perhaps it just Lou’s habit to record rehearsals for later reference? The only other rehearsal tape bootlegs I can recall ever hearing are the Legendary Guitar Amp Tapes. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);\"\u003eAll these mysteries and more… but what is undeniable is the power of Nico’s voice, even on these shaky tape recordings!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);\"\u003eWould \u003ca class=\"x1i10hfl xjbqb8w x1ejq31n x18oe1m7 x1sy0etr xstzfhl x972fbf x10w94by x1qhh985 x14e42zd x9f619 x1ypdohk xt0psk2 x3ct3a4 xdj266r x14z9mp xat24cr x1lziwak xexx8yu xyri2b x18d9i69 x1c1uobl x16tdsg8 x1hl2dhg xggy1nq x1a2a7pz notranslate _a6hd\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/lisarobinsonnyc\/\" role=\"link\" style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0); text-decoration: underline; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);\" tabindex=\"0\"\u003e@lisarobinsonnyc\u003c\/a\u003e want to shine more light on this??\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);\"\u003e–Mitch\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);\"\u003eSecondhand Japanese Pressing (BOOTLEG)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);\"\u003eThis is a rare bootleg supposedly from Japan.
