Liner Notes: Moe Tucker Commands Mo’ Money
– Remember that super-rare Velvet Underground acetate we told you about last week? The bidding has now hit the six-figure mark. We look forward to the Rolling Stone blog reporting this, and then not giving us any credit. [eBay] – After parting ways with Rick Rubin, Velvet Revolver has hired Brendan O’Brien to produce the band’s next album, tentatively titled If You Close Your Eyes And Drink A Bit Beforehand, It Kinda Sounds Like The Real Deal. [Billboard] – The next time some snobby Anglophile friend rants about the superiority of the U.K. music scene, gently remind him that it’s 2006, and those wanks are still listening to Take That. [NME]
