The Velvet Forum

Thank you - great find. I always find these glimpses into the lost world of the pre-Warhol VU fascinating.

Wow. If you listen closely one of the backing voices is definitely Cale.

Wonder how much crossover there is with the 11 poems that were published in Nigel Trevena's Velvets book?

Ah. That does make sense.

A puzzling aside from Yule in that 1975 interview - Daryl Hall and John Oates filled in as guitarists in the 1973 Velveteen band? What? Has anyone heard of this elsewhere?

Great work MJG.

The Rock'n'Roll Animal page has it as April/May. An error?

Do the sleevenotes from the 'Stiff from His Legend' boot L.P. offer any clues?

That's who was on the album - I don't think those guys ever played live with him though

Pretty cool. Looks like she'll also have worked with Jerry Lee Lewis and Mott the Hoople. Not bad.
