TOO MUCH NOISE FOR THE POLICE.
Lou Reed, John Cale and Sterling Morrison during the filming of ’Symphony of Sound’. The film depicts the first band practice of Velvet Underground and Nico at the Factory in New York in January 1966, and is essentially one long loose improvisation.

Warhol’s classic music documentary has been described as “eternally chic” and according to writer and biographer Victor Bockris, “remains the single best visual record of the Velvet Underground”. Recorded during a practice session at the Factory, it shows the group rehearsing for what was probably their opening at the Film-Makers’ Cinematheque basement theater. A great deal of wild camerawork and psychedelic zooming, which indicates that this film was intended for exhibition, probably in double-screen, behind the Velvet Underground on stage.
