The Velvet Underground & Nico
The Velvet Underground, Nico · 1967
Financed by Andy Warhol and mostly recorded in four days in a Manhattan studio in 1966, this debut pairs a minimalist's drone instincts with Lou Reed's flatly reported songs about addiction and the demimonde around Warhol's circle, and sold almost nothing on release before becoming one of the most cited records in rock.
