The Velvet Underground: Transitions
Episode 5
Episode date - August 25, 2023
It was only two albums into their careers (two virtually ignored albums, for that), and yet it seemed that every member of the band was transitioning.
John Cale was unceremoniously booted from the lineup and went to find solo work. Nico radically changed the stylistic course of her solo career, and John Cale just happened to be free to help her with the sudden shift. Andy Warhol was also “fired”, leaving Lou Reed to do as he wished…but what did he want to do? This show answers a few questions and poses a few more.
