I'm really getting tired of your antics man.

This section is for ing around, no one takes this spot seriously fool.

If you want to see discussion threads and hwo its done go up the steps and see how men talk.

This here is childs play.

Also, learn how to read. I said section, not board. There are multiple sections to this board.

Geez man. Really? You are going to make me explain this to you? Clown.

Are you for ing real? If nobody takes this board seriously then......NOW THINK IDIOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Biopolar?

I didn't say that the magazine has nothing to do with music history. Learn how to read. I said that the magazine had nothing to do with the conversation we were having about you not knowing the name of an album. If it did, please tell me why.



You also didn't know what VU's debut album was called, didn't know that Transformer was a Lou Reed solo album, didn't know the names of any albums from your favorite band of the last 30 years, and you are deathly afraid of posting pics of your record collection.

I must have said..."I used "that banana album" trying to be cute"...a half dozen times. Since the name is in the lower right hand corner....come on man I explained how I discovered The White Strips. Didn't care anything about Transformer other than...Walk on the Wild Side... it sucked.

Nothing up there is of any historical value however. Yes..banana album..was somewhat important, but on a lower level.

at The Velvet Underground and Nico being of lesser historic value

In the grand scheme of things..absolutely!!!!!

It was not until a decade later that the album started to receive almost unanimous praise by numerous rock critics, many of whom made particular note of its influence in modern rock music. In April 2003, Spin led their "Top Fifteen Most Influential Albums of All Time" list with the album.[16] On November 12, 2000, NPR included it in their "NPR 100" series of "the most important American musical works of the 20th century".[17]Rolling Stone placed it at number 13 on their list of "The 500 Greatest Albums of All Time" in November 2003, calling it "the most prophetic rock album ever made."[1]

In 1997, Velvet Underground & Nico was named the 22nd greatest album of all time in a Music of the Millennium poll conducted in the United Kingdom by HMV Group, Channel 4, The Guardian and Classic FM. In his 1995 book, The Alternative Music Almanac, Alan Cross placed the album in the #1 spot on the list of '10 Classic Alternative Albums'. In 2006, Q magazine readers voted it into 42nd place in the "2006 Q Magazine Readers' 100 Greatest Albums Ever" poll, while The Observer placed it at number 1 in a list of "50 Albums That Changed Music"[18] in the July of that year. Also in 2006, the album was chosen by TIME magazine as one of the 100 best albums of all time.[19]

The influence of the Velvet Underground on rock greatly exceeds their sales figures and chart numbers. They are one of the most important rock and roll bands of all time, laying the groundwork in the Sixties for many tangents rock music would take in ensuing decades. Yet just two of their four original studio albums ever even made Billboard’s Top 200, and that pair –Luck_The_Fakers_The Velvet Underground and NicoLuck_The_Fakers_(#171) andLuck_The_Fakers_White Light/White HeatLuck_The_Fakers_(#199) – only barely did so. If ever a band was “ahead of its time,” it was the Velvet Underground. Brian Eno, cofounder of Roxy Music and producer ofLuck_The_Fakers_U2Luck_The_Fakers_and others, put it best when he said that although the Velvet Underground didn’t sell many albums, everyone who bought one went on to form a band. The New York Dolls,Luck_The_Fakers_Patti Smith, theLuck_The_Fakers_Sex Pistols,Luck_The_Fakers_Talking Heads,Luck_The_Fakers_U2,Luck_The_Fakers_R.E.M., Roxy Music and Sonic Youth have all cited the Velvet Underground as a major influence.

From The Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame's website. Especially funny since you give the Hall do much value.

stupid word filters

what a dumbass

Well aware of all that, didn't we know they were ranked 13th by Rolling Stone? You don't seem to understand the word....historical. Take away The Velvet Underground now what? Take away...Blind Lemon Jefferson, Jimmie Rodgers, Elvis, Frank Sinatra, Jimi Hendrix, Hank Williams, The Beatles, Chuck Berry, Robert Johnson, Bob Dylan, The Rolling Stones...totally different deal.

I know...huh?

You have a thought process problem, as the Czar would say.

Maybe by 10 o'clock tonight you'll get it. If not, some day.

Do you know who Jellyroll Morton was? When talking about historical.....we look far deeper than The Velvet Underground.

Imagine reggae without Bob Marley.

Take away The Velvet Underground now what?

You lose one of the more influential bands ever, as noted by many publications.

They don't! You really do need to bone up on ....MUSIC 101. As of right now I fell like I'm talking to a little kid with a record by The Velvet Underground.


You could write a book on the history of music and not even include them.

Then you would be omitting an incredibly significant band.

Find The Velvet Underground

This Thread.

[redzero]

at me being lost

Here's the facts:
- You have given credence to Rolling Stone magazine.
- You have given credence to the Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame.
- Both groups have recognized The Velvet Underground as historically significant.

So, do you disagree with them now?

at using one website

I can find websites that have VU ranked much higher.

Did I not method....level? Everything has degrees/levels. Is Randy Moss fast... yes! Then there's Usain Bolt...totally different level.

The music world wasn't changed by The Velvet Underground. No where are they among the top 10 in anything. They didn't make the impact needed to be among the true legends. yes they had an important album...cool! But if we look at the greatest bands of all time they are wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy down there.

Hank Williams was still more influential. And he sucked.
