Title: Save yourself some money and just get the box set.
Review: I woludn't even bother buying any of the seperate reissues. Just get the box set, "Peel Slowly and See". The great set includes all of the original lp's plus lots of bonus stuff. Their entire recorded legacy is damn near flawless. Trust me on this one, you'll end up buying all of their stuff anyway, might as well get it all in one shot. Get the box set, then get the two 1969 live recordings, and then, if you still need some more Velvets get the Robert Quine three CD set (which sonically is not as good as the 1969 recordings, but the performances are outstanding. So there you go, first the box set, then the two live 1969 cd's, and then the Robert Quine box set. The Velvet's were probably the most interesting, influential, under appreciated, underrated, and innovative bands of the 20th century. All good pop music, rock and roll, indie rock, art rock, punk rock, alternative has it's roots here.
