Description: A portrait of the band the Velvet Underground recorded during a practice session at the Factory made in January 1966. The psychedelic camerawork reveals the band rehearsing an instrumental number; Nico, the German singer and an actress whom Warhol introduced into the band, sits on a stool and bangs a tambourine, while her son, Ari, plays on the floor at her feet.
