Product Description

Arguably the most remarkable track on a newly-released album* of demos made in May 1965, this earliest-known version of "Pale Blue Eyes" once again demonstrates the incomparable genius of Lou Reed's songwriting. The embryonic version of one of Lou's greatest songs differs only in one vital respect from that of VU's third album of 1968, "The Velvet Underground": where the demo is clearly a 'Dylanesque' folk ballad, the introduction in '68 of a jarring Blues-infused lead guitar completely alters the 'folky' feel and mood. The combination of two 'irreconcilable' tonalities produces something extremely rare and innovative in the history of Rock and Roll: Disharmony or Atonality! And, the effect is equally poignant, but also more unsettling and hauntingly resonant - Pure Genius!
*("Lou Reed: "Words & Music, May 1965, Light in the Attic Records, July 2022)
