Notes

Released in 1968 on America’s coolest label Elektra Records, Nico’s sophomore solo release The Marble Index was an instant avant-garde masterpiece. Nico’s haunting voice and droning harmonium predicted the Gothic movement and John Cale’s startlingly modern classical production ensured the album’s timeless appeal.
The iconic music journalist Lester Bangs wrote, “The Marble Index is the greatest piece of ‘avant-garde classical,’ ‘serious’ music of the last half of the 20th century so far.” The Marble Index and Nico’s third solo album, 1970’s Desertshore, have long been out of print. These reissues include audio mastered from the original tapes and previously unreleased photos of Nico by Guy Webster.
