Editing The Velvet Underground & Nico (section)

===Cover versions===
In April 1967, one month after the album's release, a band called the Electrical Banana may have recorded the first cover version of "There She Goes Again". According to bandmember [[Dean Kohler]], they recorded it in a tent in Vietnam in April 1967 and sent the master tape to a company in California to have 45 RPM records pressed.<ref>{{cite book |title=Rock 'n' Roll Soldier: A Memoir |last1=Kohler |first1=Dean Ellis |last2=VanHecke |first2=Susan |year=2009 |publisher=HarperCollins |location=New York |isbn=978-0-06-124255-7 |url=https://archive.org/details/rocknrollsoldier0000kohl }}</ref>

Also in 1967 the Dutch band The Riats from The Hague released a single with "Run, Run, Run" as the A-side and "Sunday Morning" as B-side. The exact release date is unknown, so it remains open for debate whether Electric Banana or The Riats were the first to put a Velvet Underground cover on record.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.muziekencyclopedie.nl/action/entry/The+Riats|title=The Riats|website=www.muziekencyclopedie.nl|access-date=December 27, 2020|archive-date=June 10, 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210610004503/https://www.muziekencyclopedie.nl/action/entry/The+Riats|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.45cat.com/record/35796|title=45Cat|website=www.45cat.com|access-date=December 27, 2020|archive-date=June 10, 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210610004315/http://www.45cat.com/record/35796|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://dangerousminds.net/comments/check_out_these_rare_1967_velvet_underground_covers_from_dutch_kids_and|title=check_out_these_rare_1967_velvet_underground_covers|website=dangerousminds.net|date=June 12, 2014|access-date=December 27, 2020|archive-date=November 12, 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201112025924/https://dangerousminds.net/comments/check_out_these_rare_1967_velvet_underground_covers_from_dutch_kids_and|url-status=live}}</ref>
