Try a bit of Velvet Underground - the later albums with Doug Yule are excellent.
Don'y worry, I am well up on the Velvet Underground's work from start to finish, including the underrated Doug Yule contribution. However, it is John Cale who I think made them special and I am going to recommend some of his solo albums for a re-visit. Namely 'Paris 1919', 'Slow Dazzle' as well as the 'Extra Playful' E.P. Saw him live a few years ago, still mad, bad and dangerous to know at seventy he was.
Found this on YT the other week, banging concert from that period.
I might have had a bit of a thing for Tina Weymouth when I was younger, apparently she's 70 now, wow, where did that life go?
No idea when I began here, was a very long time ago. Previously known as Spirit_of_81. Love cheese, hate the colour of it, this is why it requires some blue in it.
Siamese Dream and Troublegum by Therapy? Thirteen by Teenage Fanclub, Last Splash by The Breeders, early Beck , went hand in hand for me, in early 94 either one of those would be be playing loud in my bedroom. That period from 1991 until 1994 before Britpop took over was a golden period, rave was still in full swing and the big indie/dance crossover was going down, and you had both shoegazing and grunge going on. Autumn 1991 saw Nevermind, Blue Lines, Screamadelica, Loveless, Bandwagonseque, The Black Album by Metallica
And after a couple of hours of that you can move on to this:
Every song on Forever Changes is amazing but nothing beats 'And More Again'.
I saw Arthur Lee and his assembled band at the Scala in King's Cross in 2003. It was a secret gig and they called themselves 'The And More Agains' for the night. It was one of the greatest concerts I've been to. Arthur Lee was on brilliant form and there were all kind of vagrants in attendance including several familiar faces.
Afterwards I was walking down Grays Inn Road with my brother and a couple of Italian friends when guess who we bumped into...the man himself, Arthur Lee.

I was also at the gig. Lived in Tufnell Park at the time so it was a proper all-dayer.
It's a maginficent record...my favourite track is "You Set The Scene"
