Was he, dare I say, right?

jazzcore is real CONFIRMED

>>61902201
Yeah he's pretty spot on, that's all you need to make a good song (Heroin)

Does that mean that The Velvet Underground was actually a Jazz band?

Four chords and you may as well be writing a symphony?

>three chords and you're into jazz

pretty sure Candy Says has more than three chords

was this man a hypocrite?

>>61903485
he's the master troll, he might have even coined the term "trolling"

Lou Reed was a big Jazz fan though, so I don't take it as negative comment.

>According to Reed (despite the original liner notes), the album entirely consists of guitar feedback played at different speeds. The two guitars were tuned in unusual ways and played with different reverb levels. He would then place the guitars in front of their amplifiers, and the feedback from the very large amps would vibrate the strings—the guitars were, effectively, playing themselves. He recorded the work on a four-track tape recorder in his New York apartment, mixing the four tracks for stereo. In its original form, each track occupied one side of an LP record and was listed with a runtime of 16 minutes and 1 second, although the actual runtimes vary. The runtime for the fourth side was listed on the label as the symbol for infinity, because it ended in a locked groove, causing the last 1.8 seconds of sound to repeat endlessly until the listener picked the needle up from the record. The rare 8-track tape version has no silence in between programs, so that it plays continuously without gaps on most players. A quadraphonic disk was also released by RCA.
