THE WILD SIDE OF THE STREET
Living Legend LLRCD 057, Italy, 1990

1. Waiting For The Man (7:19)
2. Run Run Run (10:36)
3. Pale Blue Eyes (6:04)
4. What Goes On (11:40)
5. Heroin (6:59)
6. Sweet Sister Ray (24:02).

1-5 : Hilltop Festival, New Hampshire, August 2, 1969
6 : Boston Tea Party, March 15, 1969.

Rated as definitive for its versions of Pale Blue Eyes,Run Run Run, What Goes On and Heroin.

Yet another "Professor"'s reel - it's the only Velvet Underground outdoor performance recording available (except for two brief excerpts from Philip Johnson's Glasshouse 1967 benefit). Plus the bonus Sweet Sister Ray is actually Sister Ray from the "guitar amp" tape.

Definitely a must-have.
