Though largely ignored upon its release, it has since become one of the most influential and critically lauded rock albums in history, appearing as #13 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 greatest albums of all time as well as being added to the 2006 National Recording Registry by the Librarian of Congress.
On the 1996 CD reissue, the banana image is on the front cover while the image of the peeled banana is on the inside of the jewel case, beneath the CD itself.
Much of the album's sound was conceived by John Cale, who stressed the experimental qualities of the band. Cale, who was influenced greatly by his work with La Monte Young, John Cage and the early Fluxus movement, encouraged the use of alternative ways of producing sound in music. Cale thought his sensibilities meshed well with Lou Reed's, who was already experimenting with alternative tunings. For instance, Reed had "invented" the ostrich guitar tuning for a song he wrote called "The Ostrich" for the short-lived band The Primitives. Ostrich guitar tuning consists of all strings being tuned to the same note. The method was utilized on songs "Venus in Furs" and "All Tomorrow's Parties". Often, the guitars were also tuned down a whole step, which produced a lower, fuller sound that Cale called "sexy".
Track History: "Heroin" is a song by The Velvet Underground, released on their 1967 debut album, The Velvet Underground and Nico. Written by Lou Reed in 1964, the song is one of the band's most celebrated compositions, overtly depicting heroin use and abuse. Critic Mark Deming writes, "While 'Heroin' hardly endorses drug use, it doesn't clearly condemn it, either, which made it all the more troubling in the eyes of many listeners".[1]
In 2004, Rolling Stone ranked it #448 on their list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. In 2006, Pitchfork Media ranked it #77 on their list of the 200 Greatest Songs of the 1960s. In 2007 Mental Floss magazine listed it as one of ten songs that changed the world. "Heroin" was among a three-song set to be re-recorded at T.T.G. Studios, Hollywood before being included on the final release of The Velvet Underground and Nico (along with "I'm Waiting for the Man" and "Venus in Furs"). This recording of the song would be the album's second longest at 7 minutes and 12 seconds, being eclipsed only by "European Son" by about thirty seconds.
"Heroin" begins slowly with Lou Reed's quiet, melodic guitar and hypnotic drum patterns by Maureen Tucker, soon joined by John Cale's droning electric viola and Sterling Morrison's steady rhythm guitar. The tempo increases gradually, mimicking the high the narrator receives from the drug, until a frantic crescendo is reached, punctuated by Cale's shrieking viola and the more punctuated guitar strumming of Reed and Morrison. Tucker's drumming becomes hurried and louder. The song then slows to the original tempo, and repeats the same pattern before ending.
The song is based on a D flat and a G flat major chords. Like "Sister Ray", it features no bass guitar. Rolling Stone magazine said "It doesn't take much to make a great song," since the song only featured three chords.
Lyrics: When Im rushing on my run And I feel just like jesus son And I guess I just dont know And I guess that I just dont know
I have made very big decision Im goin to try to nullify my life cause when the blood begins to flow When it shoots up the droppers neck When Im closing in on death
You cant help me not you guys All you sweet girls with all your sweet talk You can all go take a walk And I guess I just dont know And I guess I just dont know
I wish that I was born a thousand years ago I wish that Id sailed the darkened seas On a great big clipper ship Going from this land here to that I put on a sailors suit and cap
Away from the big city Where a man cannot be free Of all the evils in this town And of himself and those around Oh, and I guess I just dont know Oh, and I guess I just dont know
Heroin, be the death of me Heroin, its my wife and its my life Because a mainer to my vein Leads to a center in my head And then Im better off than dead
When the smack begins to flow Then I really dont care anymore About all the jim-jims in this town And everybody putting everybody else down And all of the politicians makin crazy sounds All the dead bodies piled up in mounds, yeah
Wow, that heroin is in my blood And the blood is in my head Yeah, the gods good as dead Ooohhh, God that Im not aware I just dont care And I guess I just dont know And I guess I just dont know

Those who know They don't let it show They just give you one long glance And you'll go oh, oh, oh, oh.
Goes to show How winds blow The weather's fine And I feel so, so, so, so, so.
Birds of Prey With too much to say Oh what could be my destiny Another rainy day.
Why ask why For by the by and by, All mysteries are just more Needles in the camel's eye.

Subject: Brian Eno - Mother Whale Eyeless Sun Nov 18, 2012 6:51 pm
I can think of nowhere I would rather be Reading morning papers Drinking morning tea.
She clutches the tray And then we talk just like a kitchen sink play Nothing ventured nothing gained Living so close to danger Even your friends are strangers Don't count upon their company.
Places for the fingers Places for the nails Hidden in the kitchen Right behind the scales.
What do I care I'm wasting fingers like I have them to spare Plugging holes in the Zuider Zee Punishing Paul for Peter Don't ever trust those meters What you believe is what you see.
In my town, there is a raincoat under a tree In the sky there is a cloud containing the sea In the sea there is a whale without any eyes In the whale there is a man without his raincoat.
In another country With another name Maybe things are different Maybe they're the same.
Back on the train The seven soldiers read the papers again But the news it doesn't change Swinging about through the creepers Parachutes caught on steeples Heroes are born But heroes die.
Just a few days A little practice and some holiday pay We're all sure You'll make the grade Mother of God if you care We're on a train to nowhere Please put a cross upon our eyes Take me I'm nearly ready you can take me To the raincoat in the sky Take me my little pastry mother take me There's a pie shop in the sky.
