This is all the more reason to be impressed by the two-disc GOLD, a superbly compiled representation of the seminal band's revolutionary music. With nine tracks from their landmark debut album, essentials from WHITE LIGHT/WHITE HEAT and their third album, cherry-picked gems from VU (a collection of unreleased sessions) and the 1969 live album, and two VU-assisted tracks from Nico's CHELSEA GIRL, GOLD is as close to comprehensive as such sets get.One major omission is the complete lack of material (the result of a licensing issue) from LOADED, the band's final release. Still, key tracks from LOADED ("Rock and Roll;" "Sweet Jane") are culled from the live album. Also, fans may find many favorites missing--"I'm Set Free," "After Hours" and "Who Loves the Sun" are conspicuously absent. Even so, GOLD does a remarkable job encompassing the Velvets' wildly eclectic aesthetic, touching on their most lyrical and accessible work ("Pale Blue Eyes") and their most experimental (the 17-minute-plus "Sister Ray"). Sequenced chronologically, remastered with precision and care, and including a booklet packed with photos and authoritative notes, GOLD is the perfect introduction to the band that should need none.
