I had a stall at a big record fair in Dundee today and managed to clear out loads of stuff cheap, Beatles, Genesis, Dylan etc, albums I really wasn't fussed with keeping and as usual the dealers were all over me. The advantage of this to me, was that I got chatting and to one of them in particular who told me he had just bought a huge Velvet Underground and related collection. I know how much he paid for the lot and there were some interesting bootlegs and all but i thought I'd offer him trade on albums from my stock which he would easily be able to double up + on and he took the bait! So I have managed to get a few keepers for my growing VU collection, the originals hardly ever turn up at fairs or anywhere in the wild so I cherry picked a couple of goodies and a live album I don't have. I was really pleased as I have never owned original US issues of their albums, I have the UK ones but the debut with it's banana intact and in lovely 'fresh' condition was an Xmas treat to myself, £100 in trade for such a beauty was a no brainer to me and it's in even better nick than my UK mono, there was even a spare bit of banana from another copy. If I have only one small gripe I wish VU&N and WLWH had both been US mono rather than the stereo issues but hey, it certainly made my Sunday Morning.

The Eric Emerson 'torso' image projected upside down on the back cover was withdrawn of later pressings.
