@adaspota.bsky.socialKaleidoscopic Nico
@adaspota.bsky.socialStill from Nico Crying, 1966. Directed by Andy Warhol.
From a two-reel film. In it, she sits for over an hour while dazzling colored lights and slides—first used during Exploding Plastic Inevitable performances—are projected onto her face.
@artbeforenoise.bsky.socialPure black? Look closer. đź’€ I found a faint skull tattoo hiding in the darkness of this Warhol design. You have to earn this image.

@lordwolfington.bsky.socialShoutout to my first girlfriend’s dad who freely gave me a first pressing of a #velvetunderground album
@grantkmcdougall.bsky.socialListening to this for the first time in several years. Have loved it since I was a teenager. The paths it led me down, I shall be eternally grateful. Still majestic and fascinating. #Velvets #VelvetUnderground #VU #Nico #BananaAlbum #NowPlaying

@albumaday.bsky.socialEncore first today:
'Wild Child' from Lou Reed's debut solo studio album 'Lou Reed' from 1972
Underrated bridge between unreleased Velvet Underground gems and Lou's glam explosion, tending to the underbelly of NYC.
@misternatural.bsky.socialNo one sounded like the Velvet Underground or sang like Nico!
