Really? The Valentin mix is more prevalent these days.
― Mark G, Monday, 11 August 2014 21:55 (nine years ago) link
yeh i only heard the Valentin version recently for the first time, sounded all kinds of wrong after 20+ years of closetness
― ( X '____' )/ (zappi), Monday, 11 August 2014 21:55 (nine years ago) link
Back whenever, I bought the (expensive) Japanese issue, as it has always used the Val mix, for to hear it, finally.
Felt daft about 6 months later, when the cd edition came out with the val mix for ever..

Definitely prefer the Valentin mix but i heard that one first so that may be why. Like the Valentin some kinda love better.
― tylerw, Monday, 11 August 2014 23:18 (nine years ago) link
I was so baffled when I heard that new Some Kinda Love on the 80's reissues, I had tracked down a french copy of the 3rd LP. I guess I prefer the Valentin mix (which is actually the original, right?), but I much prefer the closet take of SKL and feel sentimental about that mix as a whole.

I prefer Valentin mix/"Some Kinda Love" too, but not by a huge margin. It's the one I heard first and am most familiar with.

Bill Levenson on the Steve Hoffman forums sez:
I saw your post today, and thought I'd comment.The track listing you posted is incorrect. What you posted is an old work-in-progress list of mine, which has been updated. Disc 4 has been totally reworked to feature either original 1969 mixes, or new 2014 mixes that strip away the 1980s technology of the VU/Another View albums. We spent a lot of time working on Disc 4, and we're very happy with the way it turned out!I hope this list doesn't mislead a lot of SH forum members and fans!Regards,Bill

Thanks for those links, sleeve! Guess I'll hold on even tighter to my vinyl VU.

so psyched for the matrix stuff. the other stuff doesn't seem tooooo exciting, though i'm sure it'll be nice (was kind of hoping for some random unreleased studio recordings). in other VU trainspotting news: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/eat-to-the-beat-tickets-13180177265Chefs Paul Kahan of Nico Osteria, Blackbird, and the Publican, and Matthias Merges of Yusho, Billy Sunday and A10 present a spectacular multi-course dinner inspired by the groundbreaking 1967 album The Velvet Underground & Nico - with special guest Velvet Underground founder John Cale.

Well, the "1969" LP from the box set (hey, I managed to get one out of a box) has the Foggy intro.
So, you never know.

When is the food thing? I'd freak out if I could sup with John Cale. I'm sure it's $$$$$$$$$$.
― cross over the mushroom circle (La Lechera), Thursday, 25 September 2014 16:13 (nine years ago) link
oct. 12 - $250would depress me too, if it was happening anywhere near me, because there's pretty much no way I could justify spending the cash.
― tylerw, Thursday, 25 September 2014 16:14 (nine years ago) link
:(That's absurd
― cross over the mushroom circle (La Lechera), Thursday, 25 September 2014 17:41 (nine years ago) link
you guys seriously i know jc is probably a rich man now and he has rich ppl friends but who has $300 to blow for the VIP pass to this thing? it's depressing.
i mean can i crawl under someone's serving platter and plant myself on a cheese plate and wait to get thrown out?

For $300, Cale should be your table's personal violist throughout your meal.

Here's the other weird thing -- the food ticket is $250. For a mere $50 more you get to hobnob DIRECTLY?! I'm gonna look for a box

La Lechera had reached her limit. It was now mid-September which meant that she had been separated from John Cale for more than six months.
