July 14, 2016 - The Velvet Underground - I'm Set Free (1969)


The things I most love about I'm Set Free:
The way the double tracked vocals on 'free' in the chorus create this sudden dissonance, as one voice rises slightly.
The slow surfy guitar solo...I think the Pixies took this and stuck it on 'Havalina'.
And, finally, the line 'The prince of stories who walks right by me.'

From the Velvet Underground self-titled 1969 album.
