End: Expanded

Limited double 180 gm vinyl LP pressing includes bonus LP featuring tracks previously unissued on vinyl. THE END... was the fourth studio album by Nico, released in 1974. The album is her fifth collaboration with John Cale and second with him as producer. It carries the same harmonium-based sound heard on THE MARBLE INDEX and DESERTSHORE, with the addition of Brian Eno's synthesizers and electronic instruments. The song 'You Forget to Answer' tells of the misery felt by Nico when she failed to reach ex-lover Jim Morrison by phone only to find out later that he had died. All but two of the songs on the album were written by Nico: The cover of the Doors' 'The End' and a version of the German national anthem 'Das Lied Der Deutschen'. Being 40 years since the album originally came out, as a bonus there is a whole LP added to the package with bonus material from 1974-75, previously unavailable on vinyl.
