Billy Name and The Mole People



It wouldn't have been The Factory without Billy Name. Billy Name was the pragmatist. He did the silk screens. He put the foil up on the walls. He painted the bathroom silver (he lived in the bathroom for over a year).


The cover of the Velvet's second album (White Light / White Heat) is a photo that Billy took of a tattoo on a biker's arm. The cover looks black, but it's actually a really low exposure photo (this was Lou's idea)

Next Saturday night we're gonna Give the Kids What They Want. And they want the Green Fuzz. They like it Chopped and Dropped. You know, You Have This Strange Effect On Me... And I Like It. And that's because the Kingdom of Heaven is Within You. I mean, I'm not from Brooklyn, I'm not from Queens. Know what I mean?
