- The Velvet Underground was an American rock band, active between 1964 and 1973, formed in New York City by Lou Reed and John Cale. Although they had little commercial success at the time, the band is often cited as one of the most important and influential groups of all time.[1] In 1982, Brian Eno said that while the first Velvet Underground album sold only 30,000 copies in its early years, "everyone who bought one of those 30,000 copies started a band."[2] Andy Warhol first managed the Velvet Underground and it was the house band at his studio, the Factory, and his Exploding Plastic Inevitable events from 1966-1967. The provocative lyrics of some of the band's songs gave a nihilistic outlook to some of their music.[3][4] Their 1967 debut album, The Velvet Underground & Nico (which featured German singer Nico, with whom the band collaborated), was named the 13th Greatest Album of All Time, and the "most prophetic rock album ever made" by Rolling Stone in 2003.[5][6] In 2004, Rolling Stone ranked the band No. 19 on its list of the "100 Greatest Artists of All Time".[7] The band was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1996, by Patti Smith.

Si dice che siano stati i patriarchi della prima forma d'indie music, e il secondo miracolo dopo Mozart nella storia della musica occidentale. E tutto questo è strano, pensando a cosa ci ha offerto Lou Reed in tempi recenti, con i Metallica, ha effettuato un operazione di smembramento, Lulu un album che farebbe impallidire pure Nico.

I think I once told somebody that I had gone in to see them, but it wasn't true. He obtained a US copy of the Velvet Undergound and Nico LP when he was on Radio London and it became one of the most frequently-played albums on the Perfumed Garden. As a guest on the mid-morning show coffee break in July 1967 (Radio London), he talked to Pete Drummond about the group's debut album and played a couple of tracks from it. In his International Times column of 27 October 1967 he writes: The Velvet Underground and Nico LP is finally being released, together with E. Burdon's "Winds of Change". Both are essential.... He soon forgot about the Eric Burdon LP, but would later refer to the Velvet Underground And Nico on-air as one of the most important LPs of 1967. He continued to play tracks from the Velvets' later albums during the Top Gear years as their cult status grew. Although they had no commercial success they became favourites of many critics in the rock press, such as Melody Maker's Richard Williams and New Musical Express's Nick Kent, and their first LP was reissued in Britain as early as 1971. Peel played tracks from it as a result. The Velvets were also a major influence on the emerging punk-rock scene, which led to more plays on Peel's shows in the late 1970s and early 1980s. The band reformed briefly in the early 1990s and Peel finally saw them live, at Glastonbury in 1993, although they failed to leave a positive impression, with the DJ comparing them to a highly proficient tribute band.[1] In 1997, the Guardian asked John Peel to list his Top 20 Albums and one of them was the group's debut album, Velvet Underground and Nico.
