live at end of cole avenue (1st night)

The Velvet Underground were arguably at their live peak in late 1969. Lou Reed, Sterling Morrison, Maureen Tucker and Doug Yule (whod replaced John Cale a full year previously) had developed into a sensationally tight and adventurous quartet, and this show - the first of two recorded on consecutive nights before a tiny audience in Dallas, Texas - is unquestionably one of the finest surviving documents of them in performance.
