Save a little of that holiday cash — a giant new box set from the Velvet Underground is on its way in late February. Out February 23, The Velvet Underground is a limited edition vinyl box set featuring all six of the band’s studio albums, as well as a 48-page book featuring photos, lyrics, and an introduction from member Maureen “Moe” Tucker.

The set features the band’s four well-known studio albums — The Velvet Underground And Nico, White Light/White Heat, The Velvet Underground, and Loaded — as well as Nico’s Chelsea Girl and the band’s “lost” album 1969.
