This is quite a common attitude, I think, and if I were honest, I haven't played either album for years. Having said that, back in the day I played TMR obssessively, but never took to VU & Nico.

For my money, the second and third VU albums were better than their debut.

I didn't think White Light/White Heat was all that great to be honest. The self titled album rates pretty high though.

White Light/White Heat is objectively pretentious rock perfection.

A lot of people are saying this poll has been rigged. The result has been stolen by a cabal of Lou-Reed worshipping Satanists.

In the interests of transparency, the poll numbers should be audited by an impartial team of experts headed up by me, Dirty and [MERIT]. If the mods refuse, it can only be because they have something to hide: they have been flipping votes and planting fake "votes" from people like Hugo Chavez and Chula Vista.

You could be onto something but I don’t know enough about this little digital coven to know myself. One aspect of this site that really has me suspicious though is the long list of names supposedly on line at any given time. Very few of them appear to have ever posted anything. What gives?

Feds. Don't ask.

Trout Mask Replica is more replayable but the songs in VU's debut are obviously better

Guess I'm going with VU

Hard choice

VU pls

I like Trout Mask but I have to be in the right frame of mind

VU is more a soundtrack for any day
