This concert contains one new song and it makes me wonder what we'd have heard if the band had stayed together for a few more albums. The concert is great and intimate, fine camera work and excellent setlist. Obviously, from my title I am a fan of the Velvet Underground and I also love most of Lou's solo work as well as Cale's interesting releases. The really great bands don't always join for a concert with all of the original members but thankfully the Velvet Underground have and it's preserved here for all time. My kids and theirs and so on will always be able to watch an amazing band come together and sound awesome. They're quite a bit more polished than the concerts of the late 60's (which can be viewed occasionally if you look hard enough) and they play confidently as if they've practiced together for awhile although Sterling Morrison seems nervous on solos . John Cale is an accomplished multi-instrumentalist, Lou Reed is Lou Reed and Moe Tucker is pretty solid as she stands in her unconventional style of playing drums. I just love this disc.Read full review

This is one of the filmed shows during the Velvet Underground's reunion show/tour over in Europe before Sterling passed away. The show is great. except for John Cale doing the lead vocal on "I'm Waiting for my Man". otherwise it's Great and the Price was great for what I'm guessing is now a out of print dvd.

not a bad show the songs of the velvel are as good as the were 40 years ago but without Nico it's not the Andy Wharhol 's Velvet Underground. But listening to those cult song was a great pleasure just a bit bad that it seem that they dont have the same pleasure that we have Nit great but good
Maybe I'm not a big enough fan to get past the seemingly dull performance here. I found the audio and video to be OK but it did not raise the hair on my head like I remembered from previous live concerts. I know the band is older and not the drug sponges they used to be, maybe that's why I expected better. You might really like this DVD who's to know, I was disappointed though.
