Bollocks.
"Sister Ray" is a lot more than just a loud + long rock and roll song.

third > wl/wh > #1 > velvet underground & nico > velvet underground > v.u.> loaded > radio city
surprised at general equation of both bands, to what extent is this inspired by recent revisiting of the chilton catalog? i'd have assumed the velvet underground were seen in another category really, but i'm pleased anyway

I started this poll because of the Reed vs. Chilton thread

"Third/Sister Lovers" is much better than the horrible "White Light/White Heat", yet not even close to being in the same league as "#1 Album".

I think I'd vote for "White Light/White Heat" over all but maybe 15-20 albums

Third got a lot more votes than i expected. Deservedly

This poll came out weighted about exactly how I feel about those albums. 51:29 in favour of the Velvets.
