I think he’d have earned his producer’s stripes if only for The Marble Index and the Stooges first album….

fitterstoke commented on the post, John Cale or Lou Reed? 3 days, 14 hours ago

Cale for me, although also a big listener to most of Uncle Lou’s output.

I took a young woman of my acquaintance to an evening of Starevich animations at the GFT in Glasgow when I was a student….never heard from her again….

At one point I used the abstract noise passage which links parts one and two of Saucerful of Secrets…worked surprisingly well but freaked out my co-workers….

I spotted this a few days ago…
Tiggerlion: “My ringtone is Black Satin from On The Corner. At least it was until I got a new phone a few months ago.”

I believe you, Tiggs…my favourite Roxy LP is actually Country Life….but I still think the “classic” line-up has Eno in it…
