From Wikipedia
White Light/White Heat is the second studio album by the American rock band the Velvet Underground. Released on January 30, 1968, by Verve Records, it was the band's last studio album with multi-instrumentalist and founding member John Cale. Recorded after band leader Lou Reed fired Andy Warhol, who had produced their debut album The Velvet Underground & Nico, they hired Steve Sesnick as their new manager and Tom Wilson, who had worked on the band's debut, to produce the album. White Light/White Heat was engineered by Gary Kellgren.
