What the label says:

While 1967’s “Velvet Underground & Nico” was a part of Andy Warhol’s global artistic vision, 1968’s “White Light / White Heat” was free of all Warholian influence, so in a way it could be thought of as another debut album. Here the music was left to fester on its own, with no artistic visionary interfering or trying to create a soundtrack for his pop art, and the Velvets filled that void with an album that is an aural subway car full of drunkards, junkies and whores rumbling through the bowels of NYC with a one way ticket to oblivion.  Special ltd. edition on clear purple vinyl

Track Listing - Side A: 1. White Light/White Heat 2. The Gift  3. Lady Godiva’s Operation 4. Here She Comes Now Side B: 1. I Heard Her Call My Name 2. Sister Ray

About the humble LP:

The LP is the daddy of formats. 12" inches of sheer joy. The LP adds to the glory of the 12" record as it can be played at a slower speed (33rpm instead of the usual 45rpm for singles), consequently more musical joy can be had. Played on a decent deck the sound of an LP is about a million times better than any other format. They look fantastic...... a nice gatefold sleeve with a information rich inner sleeve will keep you entertained for hours even before your stylus has chance to make eye contact with it's 12" prey. An essential part of musical heritage which will never be forgotten. It still does play at a multitude of speeds but as it's recorded to be played slower they normally sound ridiculous sped up. Though double albums can make up for this slight inadequacy by ramming more tunes into your ears for your money. Utterly essential.

They even checked their logs to see if they could find a trace of it but nothing came out...
