"New" VU song (1 Viewer)

[Flux]

Spotted this today.

The song is called "I'm Not A Young Man Anymore" and has surfaced on a live bootleg from '67. It's pretty good, and the quality is decent. The lyrics, er, coulda done with a bit more work, but the guitars are prime Velvets.

Thought some of yiz might be interested.

My pleasure.

The rest of the bootleg is deadly as well.

 

[Gabbo]

Sounds amazing. Chairs Flux.

 

[Lolo]

Cool! Classic rolling Velvets bassline. Lou should revive this, now that he's, well, not a young man any more. He'd probably ruin it though.

Thanks. Nice to finally hear sister ray live. I've heard there are a few legendary versions of it out there.

And yeah I've seen a few live clips of Lou and co ruining everything that was good about waiting for the man and sweet jane.
