Loaded is the fourth album by the Velvet Underground, released in 1970 on Cotillion. The album would be the band’s last with frontman Lou Reed. Drumming for these sessions was handled by multi-instrumentalist Doug Yule, who deputized the role of a then-pregnant Maureen Tucker, though the latter was credited (as “Mo Tucker”) on the original LP sleeve.
