THE VELVET UNDERGROUND (A
Documentary Film by Todd Haynes) hails from 2022 and is a SEALED 2LP. Curated by the documentary's
director, Todd Haynes, and music supervisor Randall Poster, this is
the official soundtrack for the critically acclaimed Apple Original documentary, The
Velvet Underground. Featuring some of VU's most well-known tracks, rarities and
songs that influenced them, The Velvet Underground: A Documentary Film By
Todd Haynes – Music From The Motion Picture Soundtrack serves as the
perfect introduction to the band and companion piece to the film.
The soundtrack features such Velvet favorites as "Sunday Morning,"
"All Tomorrow's Parties," "Pale Blue Eyes," "I'm
Waiting for The Man" and "Sweet Jane," as well as the mono
version of "Heroin" and the rare cut "Foggy Notion." Also
featured are live versions of "After Hours" and "Sister
Ray," Nico's "Chelsea Girls," and the tongue-in-cheek novelty
song "The Ostrich" by The Primitives, an early band formed by Lou
Reed and John Cale.
The soundtrack also features tracks by artists who influenced the band
including a live version of "Road Runner" by Bo Diddley; "The
Wind," a doo-wop classic by The Diablos featuring Nolan Strong; and the
previously unpublished La Monte Young composition, "17 XII 63 NYC The Fire
Is A Mirror (excerpt)," performed by The Theatre of Eternal Music.
