THE VELVET UNDERGROUND & NICO

THE CAT CLUB (Classic Album Thursdays) presents a long playing vinyl record. THE VELVET UNDERGROUND & NICO with special guest Maxine Peake. This fascinating interview took place before and after we listened to the band's debut vinyl album. MAXINE PEAKE, the award winning actress, writer and director of television, film, radio and stage starred as Nico in The Nico Project which was featured at the Manchester International Festival to great critical acclaim in 2019. We were delighted to welcome Maxine to The CAT Club as our special guest. In the interviewer’s chair was author and storyteller, IAN CLAYTON. It was a stormy night and the sign outside the venue can be audibly heard swinging in the wind, some wag compared it to John Cale's later work. This event took place on Thursday 24th February 2022 in the Pigeon Loft at The Robin Hood, Pontefract, West Yorkshire.
