Considering my age, I should have heard the debut album decades ago. I finally had a chance to get a copy and haven't listened all the way through yet. So far, I'm not excited about it. I thought the critics hailed this as one of the great albums of all time. To me, it sounds rather dated. Kind of like how early Beatles sounds dated. Granted, it was created in 1966 or 67. I can understand it being big then, but I expected it to be on par with other works from the same time period.
Someone enlighten me. What made this so spectacular? I'll listen to it a few times before passing on it, and I hope it wins me over. I'm typically a main-stream guy. This CD should have blown me away. Does The Velvet Underground have a better CD to sample? Somehow, I've managed to skip them my entire life.
