The Velvet Underground - Candy Says - Live Video with Audio!

“Candy Says“ live at the Paramount Theatre, Springfield MA, April 17, 1970 Video shot by Steve Nelson on monochrome soundless videotape. The audio was captured separately by unknown source I was excited by the 30 second clip of new footage in the Todd Haynes documentary and even more excited when I learned that audio existed from that same show! (In the documentary Haynes uses the audio from the studio version of the song.) I just took a little time and combined the audio from the bootlegged concert with the video from the documentary. Todd Haynes edited the song in the VU documentary to use the first half of the chorus and then the end of the chorus (skipping the “I want to watch them pass me by...“ line). I edited the song from the bootleg to match the Haynes edit so the audio/video would continue to line up The Velvet’s performed this night as a three piece (Lou, Sterling, and Doug). Moe had just gone on maternity leave
