mjmooney Posted October 27, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted October 27, 2013 I have the Velvets albums, and some Lou Reed, but I can't say I was ever a huge fan. He was one of those 'retrospective' legends really - regarded more highly by the post-punk generation than by people like me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Velvet Underground are pretty much thought of as the pioneers of what became punk rock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Velvet Underground are pretty much thought of as the pioneers of what became punk rock. TBH I find his stuff all rather dreary. Exception that proves the rule: the "Rock'n'Roll Animal" live album, if only for the blistering guitars of Hunter & Wagner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisp65 Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 I was in a minority and quite liked 'Lulu' the Lou R / Metallica collaboration of a couple of years ago. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HC9Z_D8hFiA 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
