In a rarities overview of odds and sorts, Everything You’ve Heard About The Velvet Underground, ought to fit your needs nicely.
Here are some comments by Velvet Underground critic James Jones:
Disc One comprises 12 tracks highlighting Lou Reeds’ pre-Velvet Underground days. Included are songs by luminaries such as The Carol Lou Trio, The Shades, The All Night Workers, The Primitives, The Beachnuts and, of course, The Roughnecks (how could you forget them!)
I really like the emerging druginess of Why Don’t You Smile by The Nightworkers (which was later reworked by Maureen Tucker and Jad Fair in the late ’80s). I even like (Do) the Ostrich by The Primitives, and some of the tracks such as The Beach Nuts singin’ I’ve Got A Tiger In My Tank, are groovy-okay. You can see the future direction Lou Reed was gonna go by the recordings done by The Roughnecks, in that Lou’s drawl and distinctive guitar sound were starting to form. A lot of the early tracks sound very weird now and they must have sounded even weirder when they were recorded in 1964/5. Maybe the drugs were just starting to kick in coz some of the recording sessions sound like they would have been a real hoot!
The last three tracks of Disc One include a strange feedback drone called Loop which more than definitely hints at Lou’s future direction with noise eg Metal Machine Music recorded a decade later (or was the track just caused by speed psychosis?) The closing two tracks probably recorded in 1967 include taped conversation at a Andy Warhol book launch - with the Velvet’s first album playing in the background. The last track was simply more experimental taping of dialogue for the East Village Electronic Newspaper - circa 1967. Disc One is a very interesting historical piece.
LP Two is a significant odds and ends record highlighting Velvet Underground songs from 1968/69. Some of the tracks popped up again in the better sounding VU album released in later 80's. The tracks sound more like demos and include; Some Kinda Love, a rough early version of the awsome Rock'n'Roll, + Here (Come the Waves), Foggy Notion, Inside Your Head, an amazing song called Ferryboat Bill whose guitar sound reminds one of Captain Beefheart and an cool version of Fever in my Pocket and Guess I'm Fallin in Love. The quality sounds like it was recorded in a dunny block somewhere.
LP three starts with a live recording of Candy Says where the cat with the tape recorder keeps talkin Vietnam war stuff to his colleague over the top of the song. The tongues stop moving and calm down for different versions of Some Kinda Love, Cool It Down and Who Loves the Sun. Side 6 sounds like a recording of a practice session featuring VU songs we've never heard of including; I'm Free, I Found a Reason and Walk it and Talk It. The album closes off with different versions of Head Held High and I'm Set Free.
