NotesDigitally remastered and expanded edition including four bonus tracks. Loaded is the fourth studio album by The Velvet Underground, released in November 1970 by Atlantic Records' subsidiary label Cotillion. It was the final album recorded featuring Lou Reed, who had left the band shortly before it's release. The album featured original members Reed, Sterling Morrison and Maureen 'Mo' Tucker plus Doug Yule, who had joined the band in 1968 after the departure of John Cale. Loaded was a commercial effort aimed at radio play, another step away from the Warhol-influenced days. The album's title refers to Atlantic's request that the band produce an album "loaded with hits". Doug Yule said, "On Loaded there was a big push to produce a hit single, there was that mentality, which one of these is a single, how does it sound when we cut it down to 3.5 minutes, so that was a major topic for the group at that point."

  • The Final 'Classic-era' Velvet Underground Album

    For most , the band known as the Velvet Underground makes one recall their earlier works ( "...& Nico" , 1967 ; "White Light / White Heat" , 1968 ) , and to a lesser extent , their 3rd album ( self-titled album , 1969 ) . While I personally recommend listening to their albums in order , I also realise that some won't dig their more experimental works ; in this instance , I wish to recommend "Loaded" (1970) . There's quite a bit to like about "Loaded" ; the musicianship is top notch , and the songs are wonderful . Some will recognise "Sweet Jane" and "Rock & Roll" , the former being "covered" by many bands throughout the years , albeit , typically the "Live : 1969" version . "Who Loves the Sun" is a splendidly cynical rhetort to The Beatles' "Here Comes the Sun" , and is probably my favourite track on the album . Definitely worth adding to your collection !
