"Lou Reed said that he did not know anyone but himself who would have listened to the whole album. He also said things like he used to sleep by lowering the number of revolutions to the turntable. But even with those claims, Lou Reed continued to defend this record as one of the best things he had done in his life."
How could i tell him that i liked the album?
it's because i really feel sad when the work of someone gets misunderstood or underapreciated, i really feel the need of tell him that it was worth it, it hasn't happen to you with other underrated records or artists?

Also tossed out Cale because he wanted to be the indisputed leader of the band
>>
>>71070187
didn't he mostly rip MMM off from Cale?
>>
>>71070187
It's kind of too late to tell him now. He probably wouldn't have given a fuck what you or anyone else thought of it anyway

Yes. Cale was doing this stuff almost a decade before MMM. See: Loop/White Wind single
>>
>>71070932
it's certainly very similar in aesthetic to Cale's home recordings from the 60's, so I don't think there's any doubt Reed was influenced by Cale and the whole Dream Syndicate scene
>>
Hack
Simple as that
>>
>>71070947
why?

The influence of this album is obviously big, and I'm sure Reed knew about this.

>>71074651
what does that have to do with lou?
>>
>>71074690
He didn't. Noise being recognized as a musical genre and incorporated into popular music was mostly the result of Metal Machine Music.

Cale was undisputedly the genius of The Velvet Underground. This is why the quality of their music in every criteria other than lyrics after WL/WH (the greatest rock album of all time)
