Title: The Marble Index
Format: High-Definition Vinyl LP
Cat #: LP 5131

Like a bolt from heaven, Nico cast off the understated pace of her work as chanteuse of the Velvet Underground—and the heavily orchestrated folk-rock of her solo debut, Chelsea Girl—for the relentlessly bleak and cobalt-blue cool avant-garde stylings of The Marble Index. Produced by former Velvets’ John Cale, and employing the harmonium as a lead instrument, The Marble Index is revered now more than it ever was when released in 1969, as the gurgling headwaters source of Goth Rock.
