I wasn’t ready for Goo. I also think Goo is why I didn’t really get into the Velvet Underground. I picked up & Nico around the same time. Goo still feels to me like the Velvets taken to their farthest extreme. I’ve bought and offloaded this album more than any other.
When I was in the midst of my cd collecting I would purge things I had not listened to in one year. This album would head to the used cd store and then a few months later, I’d be like I really want to hear Goo and I’d find a used copy and listen to it.
I certainly wasn’t ready for it in 1990 and this was with self titled and Confusion is Sex in the collection.
I love it though. I also still don’t quite get it. I think it was the band trying to move them selves a bit from Daydream but still feeling it, if that makes sense. It’s banger followed by weird art song. Rinse, repeat and it’s a LOT.
