Nico's First Solo Album

The album was produced by Tom Wilson, and contained songs written for Nico by Reed, Kayla Morrison, plus one by Tim Hardin. It looked at first as if it might be a success, but then one of the warhol superstars, Eric Emerson, sued because the back cover included a photo of the group performing in front of a film. He needed money and so sued, hoping to shake down MGM records. The album not being available during the crucial period when it was just beginning to become popular, killed all of its momentum. By that point though, work had started on Nico's first solo album, titled Chelsea Girl.
