On the album jackets to their recently re-released albums (VU & Nico, VU, White Light/White Heat) it was mentioned that they took their name from the title of an S&M book one of the band members picked up. So I was the only one to vote for Velvet Underground and Nico in the "Top n albums of all time" poll. Sigh... Bill Hsu pur-ee!hsut Brought to you by Super Global Mega Corp .com
