The Velvet Forum

I've just checked it. Following The Rockabilly instrumental should be a "Blues Instrumental". On my silver Warhol Museum boot this kicks in at around 19:27 and ends at 24:44 (the Jan 3rd rehearsal is a single track). It should be nearly 5 minutes. What's been posted as track 7 is a 16 second snippet of the Rockabilly instrumental.

I'm not one to complain. If Rosie doesn't have the track, then she doesn't have the track. What she's given us so far is a real treat. That Heroin with JC's viola screaming was a real blast. Cheers Rosie.

1. There is no typo - the info comes directly from the Andy Warhol Museum archivist. The "Blues Instrumental" track is really given as 5:18 long on the original "All Tomorrow's Parties" CD.

2. The "Blues Instrumental" track is also 5:18 long on "At The Andy Warhol Museum" CD.

3. "07.instrumental.m4a" is not "Blues Instrumental" but actually a part of the previous track "06.rockabilly_instrumental.m4a" - from 0:53 to 1:07 and a half to be precise.

I'm certainly not complaining. Rosie Lee has come through in a HUGE way for VU fans. That Herion track is amazing. All these tracks are great.

I hate to burst your bubble fella but so far tracks 3,4,5,6,7,8, ARE from the ATAWM disc! they are cleaned up and yes that was a long overdue overhaul they needed so I can't wait to hear the rest of it cleaned up. most likly they will add tracks from the ATP CD.

rockadelic76, I'm sorry, but I think you tragically misunderstood my "in the name of all things holy" comment. I wasn't addressing the provenance of the tapes at all. Even worse, I was attempting to recover from listening to the so called "Rhythm & Blues Instrumental" and the "Venus in Furs/crackin' up" tracks. So horrible, so painful to listen to. I know...I know, sacrilege....sorry. And believe me when I say how much I truly love VU.

guys, I don´t get your point....

POINT? No point at all.

i'm beginning to see the light.....

Hello, I joined this forum today, and so far I've only listened to track 7. It's the only one available ...
But the sound quality is just WOW.
Hope to get the rest also.
A big thank you to Rosie Lee UK!

Now I have listened to all of the tracks, and I have to say that it is absolutely wonderful to finally listen to these recordings.
Thanks to everyone that made this possible, and again a special thank you to Rosie Lee UK!

Yeah, that brings up a couple of questions I've been meaning to ask. Ferges, once the older tracks are removed to make room for the latest ones, where are they going? Are they going to be available anywhere else for people who join the party a bit late? Sean, is it possible to put them into the "Files" section of JimJims, or is there not nearly enough space for that over there?

Also, are these files convertable to .WAV? I haven't had the time to give it a shot, has anybody?

I don't know Rosie, but she excites me in dark and dangerous ways! 8) Now I must go. I will await further instructions.
