 A Rock & Roll Anthology: From Folk to Fury

1. Reed, Lou. “Heroin”. Annotated typescript. ca. 1965. 1 leaf, 1 page. Lyrics match earliest extant demo of the song as recorded by the band in their Ludlow Street loft in July 1965, a recording released by Polydor Records in 1995 on The Velvet Underground: Peel Slowly & See boxset. Typescript contains significant changes, in Reed’s hand, to the last verse.

1. Reed, Lou. “Heroin”. Annotated typescript. ca. 1965. 1 leaf, 1 page. Lyrics match earliest extant demo of the song as recorded by the band in their Ludlow Street loft in July 1965, a recording released by Polydor Records in 1995 on The Velvet Underground: Peel Slowly & See boxset. Typescript contains significant changes, in Reed’s hand, to the last verse. The lyrics, as typed, read as follows: "I don’t really care no more/bout the Jims-Jims in this town/and the animals making sounds/people selling people pound by pound/and the politicians and the clowns/and the do gooders with their frowns" This has been crossed out, erased and changed to a lyric closer, though still divergent, from the final version of the song as it appears on the Velvet’s debut LP The Velvet Underground and Nico (1967, Verve). The inclusion here of the line “and the do-gooders with their frowns” would ultimately be changed to “and all the dead bodies piled up in mounds”: 2. Reed, Lou. “Heroin”. Carbon typescript ca. 1965. 1 leaf, 1 page. Carbon of the above with Reed’s changes re-written at the bottom of the page by Donald Lyons. 3. Reed, Lou. “Heroin”. Typescript II ca. 1965. 1 leaf, 1 page. Second, retyped, typescript of lyrics with Reed’s changes re-written at the bottom of the page by Donald Lyons. 4. Reed, Lou. “Black Angel’s Death Song”. Typescript ca. 1965. 1 leaf, 1 page. Lyric contains variations and additional verses from those appearing on both the Norman Dolph acetate, the earliest extant version of this song, recorded April 21 – 25, 1966 at Specter Sound Studios, New York and from the final version recorded May 1966, T.T.G Studios in Hollywood, CA and November 1966 at Mayfair Studios, New York, NY: "With subways for horses/No candles for light/the races did fight/In a street/In the east/Come to choose/Choose again"A compositional note, an homage to composer LaMonte Young who John Cale performed with in The Theater of Eternal Music from 1964 – 66, appears, in type, at the bottom of the page: "the myriad choices of his fate. . . set themselves to be repeated indefinitely eventually to be drowned and/or assimilated by the wavering line dependent on the musician" 5. Reed, Lou. “Wrap Your Troubles In Dreams” ca. 1965. 1 leaf, 1 page. Typescript with single annotation in Lyons hand. Written by Lou Reed and demoed by the band, the song was ultimately recorded by Nico for her 1967 debut LP Chelsea Girl (1967, Verve). Lyrics are identical to the acoustic demo version of the song as recorded by the band in their Ludlow Street loft in July 1965, first released by Polydor in 1995 on the boxset The Velvet Underground: Peel Slowly and See. Contains one verse excised from the final Chelsea Girl recording: "Purple is to yellow/As sunlight is to rain/Happiness in death you’ll find/Loveliness in pain" 6. Reed, Lou. “Venus In Furs” ca. 1965. 1 leaf, 1 page. Typescript. Verse and chorus arrangement differs from both the acetate version recorded by Norman Dolph in April 1966 and the version which appears on the band’s debut LP The Velvet Underground and Nico (1967). The verse/chorus structure here matches that of the July 1965 acoustic demo recorded by the band in their Ludlow Street loft.

set of typescript lyrics, with autograph changes by lou reed and donald lyons, of four songs written by reed ca. 1964/1965 and recorded by the velvet underground and nico. including the earliest known iteration of the velvet underground’s groundbreaking ode to addiction, “heroin."

John James Masquerier, R.A. 1778-1855 a girl looking at herself in the glass oil on canvas 88 by 66 cm., 34 3/4 by 26 in. Exhibited at the British Institution in 1808, the present painting may relate to the painting exhibited at the Royal Academy in the same year entitled January and May (no.189). This showed what would appear to be the same model (possibly the French actress Mlle Parisot) in a similar pose with a raised arm, as the wife of an old husband, beckoning to her lover. Sociable, attractive to women, and an inveterate traveller, Masquerier moved in the world of theatre and the arts as a young man in the early 1800s. Born in Chelsea in 1778, of French origin, he was taken to Paris where he studied under the tutelage of Vincent and Carle Vernet. He entered the Royal Academy schools on his return to England in 1792, and later worked as Hoppner's pupil and assistant. His friendships with fashionable and ambitious actresses, such as Dorothy Jordan, mistress of the Duke of Clarence, Anna Maria Crouch, pupil of Thomas Linley, and mistress of the Prince of Wales, Mrs Inchbald and many others, certainly advanced his own position and gave him access to a more elevated level of patron. He travelled to Ireland and Scotland, where he knew Raeburn, whose style he was influenced by. Exhibited: British Institution, 1808, no.319 Literature: R.R.M. See, Masquerier and his Circle, 1922, pp.196 & 246
