1967

The Velvet Underground & Nico

"I'm Waiting For The Man" showcases the Velvet Underground’s pop side and their hard-driving, rock side. It's insistent drumming, ragged guitar, and pounding piano are propulsive proto punk, capturing the jittery energy of the junkie waiting around for "the man" to bring him his fix. (C.J. 14 May 2023)
