Last year, longtime Saturday Night Live music producer Hal Willner died of complications from COVID-19 at the age of 64. When he passed away, Willner had just finished working on an all-star T. Rex tribute album; that compilation, AngelHeaded Hipster: The Songs Of Marc Bolan And T. Rex, came out last year, a few months after Willner’s death. Willner was also overseeing another tribute album, one that will feature a bunch of different stars taking on the songs from the Velvet Underground’s landmark 1967 debut album The Velvet Underground & Nico. That album, now complete, will come out this fall, and it looks pretty awesome.

The Velvet Underground: Supreme Announces The Collection
submitted by Nick Sep 16th 2019 02:00 pm (stereogum.com)
Streetwear, at least as we currently understand it, did not exist in the late '60s, when the Velvet Underground were figuring out how the next few decades of underground rock 'n' roll would sound. If it had existed, it seems like a fair bet that the Velvet Underground would've had nothing to do with it.
