		Nico changes the song's brutal climax from an implied killing of the father and rape of the mother to an implied killing of the father and probable--from the sound of things--murder of the mother.
		Nico, who called herself "an international pagan," and "an anarchist, a nihilist, to be exact," had previously been written off as untalented or a mere reflection of the famous men who promoted her.
		Nico on voice and harmonium is assisted by Phil Manzanera on guitar, Eno on synths and producer John Cale on a range of instruments including bass, xylophone, organ, glockenspiel...

	The End (Nico album) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Nico's 1973 album, The End, was her fourth release.
		All but two of the songs on the album were written by Nico: a cover of the Doors' "The End" and the German national anthem "Das Lied der Deutschen".
		In retrospect, The End is a precursor to ultra-leftfield acts, such as Death In June and subsequently the neofolk movement, that blend European folk and classical with cutting-edge electronic experimentation.

	Nico - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Nico had a short-lived romantic relationship with the Velvet Underground's main singer and songwriter, Lou Reed, at this time, one of her several romances with prominent musicians including fellow Velvet John Cale, The Doors' icon Jim Morrison, Jackson Browne, Rolling Stones' founder Brian Jones, Tim Buckley and The Stooges' Iggy Pop.
		For this album, Nico played a harmonium, which became her signature instrument for much of the rest of her career.
		Nico released three albums in the 1970s: Desertshore (1970) [3], The End (1973) [4] and June 1, 1974 [5].

	Gadfly Online.
		Nico was astonishingly beautiful, radiating an ethereal, icy image that made her seem like some kind of exquisite replica created by the doyennes of high fashion, a quality her unearthly voice seemed to underline.
		At the end of the day we would be there for her as much as you could, but you can’t be there for a junkie.
		In Nico: Icon, at the very beginning of the documentary, before anything is identified, there is a voice-over from me which says something to the effect that she has to be recognized—as the songwriter—everything else about her, especially her beauty, is obscuring her genius as a songwriter.

	Clicks and Klangs - Frozen Warnings - The Music of Nico
		I disagree with every one of this album's detractors; the delicacy of the arrangements behind Nico's voice is verging on perfection, with the relatively conservative nature of the sound diminishing the power of the songs and performance not one iota.
		Nico made this instrument her own, teaching herself to play it, with its tones making the perfect accompaniment for her icebound vocals and lyrics of forbidden fruit and folly which seldom follow any specific narrative.
		Desertshore and The End are produced, arranged and predominantly instrumented by John Cale (with the exception of Nico's ubiquitous harmonium, some guitar from Phil Manzanera and a few heavily wigged-out synth bursts from Brian Eno), and stand among Cale's greatest achievements as a producer.

		Arranger John Cale took Nico's disturbing poetry and set it to even more disturbing music; the result is one of the scariest records ever made.
		Here the disjunctive imagery is set to slightly less gothic arrangements than before, proving Nico's chanting (she doesn't "sing" any more than she writes "songs") can be as chilling a cappella as it is accompanied by a horror-movie soundtrack.
		Nico died in July 1988 on the island of Ibiza, suffering a cerebral hemmorhage in a bicycle spill.

		Nico (born Christa Päffgen) The date and location of her birth are disputed.

		Nico first became known in the music world as a singer on the first Velvet Underground album, and her later solo records would plumb even darker depths than that famed New York band of iconoclasts.
		Nico is still mostly remembered for her tambourine-shaking days in the Velvet Underground, though she departed after only one album, and began a long and excellent career as a solo singer.
		This debut album from Nico, I would say is mostly a Donovan-ish folk album and is more conventional in song structure than her second album "The Marble Index".

	Jim Morrison - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		By the release of their second album, Strange Days, The Doors had became one of the most popular rock bands in the United States.
		Shortly after sessions began, producer Paul A. Rothchild -- who had overseen all their previous recordings -- walked off the project, disenchanted with the band's new material, which he dismissed as "lounge music" and was "bored" after the band ran through the material in a bad manner.
		Some of the tapes from the 1969 session were later used as part of the Doors "An American Prayer" album released in 1978.

	Nigeria NigeriaExchange - Entertainment -> Profiles
		Prince Nico's music was inspired by the five years he spent in Cameroon during the Nigerian Civil War in the late 1960's.
		In 1973, Nico and his group released a single which was met with little fanfare but their second single, "I No Go Marry My Papa," became a regional hit.
		The album soon became a national anthem, largely because of its emphasis of motherhood and its brilliant fusion of Cameroonian, Nigerian, and Zairean styles (highlife and Congo music).

	Nico
		Nico herself definitely isn't a songwriter, and her only songwriting credit on here is the only crying disaster on the album: the eight-minute dissonant horror of 'It Was A Pleasure Then'.
		Nico still plays her harmonium, and Cale still acts as her spiritual and technical guru, but he throws in tons more instrumentation than before, experimenting with all kinds of weird percussion and bringing in a whole battery of keyboards.
		In any case, after The End Nico seems to have taken a long break - maybe she was too proud and didn't want to re-write the same album for the umptenth time, or maybe it was just a bad case of heroin addiction.

	Habits of Waste - Nico: Lost in the Land
		As soon as possible, they were rid of her and got on with the business of becoming legends, while Nico went on to obscurity, recording a few albums and becoming a junkie.
		The last 20 or so years of Nico’s life were largely spent in trying not only to be an artist (she succeeded at that), but also in being seen as one.
		Nico had sex with no one"; Viva: "Nico had no inner life, or what inner life she did have was kept strictly inner.

		In "The End," Nico put her talents to use in a series of dark, dreamlike songs that center on death, loneliness, despair and capture.
		Surprisingly, Nico does far better as a solo artist than she did with the legendary Lou Reed-led band -- they tend to be slower, thicker and darker.
		Nico's vocals really shouldn't be as good as they are -- she rarely lifted herself out of her thickly-accented monotone, and tended to sing as if she didn't want to bother.

	Slaughtering the Sacred Cows: The Most Over-Rated Albums Ever
		There were 12 of the 64 Sacred Cow albums that fell on the side of the graph indicating that critics don't respect them as much as maybe they should; if we assume that the people's voices matter, these albums should be a little more loved by the critics.
		In other words: The Velvet Underground and Nico is the album that the general listening public just most doesn't want to buy, no matter how often critics tell the people they should.
		Other albums that I personally, actively dislike on the list of 64 are Television's Marquee Moon, Bruce Springsteen's Born to Run (I can at least get through Darkness On the Edge of Town), Van Morrison's Astral Weeks and the Pixies Doolittle.

		Tom Wilson at Columbia (who was a friend of Nico) was interested and told the band to wait until he moved to MGM so that he could release them on the Verve label.
		Although NICO was advertised to appear, she stayed in Ibiza instead.
		When Susan moved to New York to study at Barnard College, she ended up working at the Factory (until approximately February of 1968) and transcribed some of the tapes that would be published as 'A: A Novel' by Andy Warhol.

	Tentative Review by The Christopher Currie: Kevin Ayers, Eno, Nico & John Cale - June 1, 1974
		As against that, though, it should be noted that (i) the (different) guitar solo at the end of the track is fairly good as regards sonic diversity, (ii) the performances on the introductory section were decent, and (iii) even in its debased form, the song is still fairly good...
		Nico's version of "The End" is not entirely satisfactory.
		This album is not strongly recommended to casual fans (although completists are sure to collect it in any event).

		The first album, "Cast of Shadows", was finished in early 2006, and is basically a compilation of instrumental works, with some songs as well.
		The first album was very experimental, and features such things as a narration of a story and even a movement from the "Kyrie Eleison I" from Ockengham's "Missa Prolationum".
		The second album, which currently is without a name, is going to be a little experimental still, but pretty contained.

	Nico . in . Tokyo (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-08)
		To any student of the 60's, Nico's rise and fall provides a remarkable apt metaphor for the failure of the counter-culture to escape its fascination with drugs and glamour, and confer upon its proponents any lasting sense of personal fulfillment.
		While she was still a toddler, war broke out and her father was sent to the front, where shell-shock put an end to his soldiering career and, eventually, his life (Nico believed he was helped to quiet death by his Nazi doctors, though this was never proved).
		By the time the war ended, in 1945, Christa and her mother had moved to Berlin, and in the aftermath of defeat, tried to make ends meet as best they could.

		Nico first rose to fame as a European supermodel, also landing a bit part in Fellini's La Dolce Vita film and giving birth to a son by Alain Delon.
		Nico embarked on a solo career, recording folk-rock-flavored songs for her debut Chelsea Girl album with assistance from Jackson Browne, Lou Reed, and John Cale.
		She released several live albums on various labels, but the ill-planned Drama of Exile and the more successful Camera Obscura were her only coherent studio efforts until she died of a cerebral hemorrhage in Ibiza in 1988.

		She is very much in charge of the music you hear, and I am so envious of her position: she has earnt herself the resources, the team and the musicians to make exactly the music she wants, at the moment she comes up with it.
		She wanted the album to consist only of accapella work.
		I was going to call the album ‘Ink’, because I wanted it to be like that fl, 5,000 year-old blood that’s inside us all; an ancient spirit that’s passionate and dark, a spirit that survives.

	The Velvet Underground and Andy Warhol Connection - 2
		The Velvet Underground was a New York based rock band who released 4 albums at the end of the sixties and in the early seventies.
		All their albums sounded very different but The Velvet Underground and Nico album which I will focus on sounded very different from everything else that came out in the sixties.
		The characteristic elements on this album were Cale`s electric Viola and Lou Reed`s special lyrics.

		When the album was completed, the group was unable to obtain distribution in either the UK or the US, but Banks and Foxx continued to record as "Empire" with an assortment of other backing musicians.
		But the album's main attraction is its extensive instrumental work, comprising sunbursts of effects organ, Mellotron strings, a few baroque electric piano embellishments and even rudimentary synth riffs and glissandi, giving the music a both sunny and spacey feel that takes it from pastures green to gulfs interstellar.
		Some of the earliest albums have some passages that hint at a rock rhythm, but for the most part the albums have a heavily orchestrated sound, all created using the standard guitars, basses, keyboards and drums.

		It was Danny Fields who first suggested Tim Hardin and Nico get together to play - in 1968, the former Velvet Underground chanteuse was playing regularly at the Dom in New York, and was in desperate need of a regular accompanist.
		A decade later, the pair reunited in LA, as Nico toured around the US on the eve of her early 1980s comeback.
		The opening two numbers are dominated by Nico’s harmonium; you hear Hardin for the first time tuning up for "Henry Hudson," before coming to the fore with "Femme Fatale" and, most notably, John Cale’s "Child’s Christmas In Wales," a song that is usually ascribed to a mythical Nico-Cale reunion.
