lou reed, nico & velvet underground: "Chelsea Girls" theme

The VU footage is by Danny Williams, from "A Walk In The Sea" Warhol doc (footage is slowed 6x and generally color-fried), also shown are John Cale, Sterling Morrison, & Maureen Tucker - Nico footage is 1/2 speed from "Chelsea Girls" lightshow sequence. The VU theme music is a double looped excerpt from "Chelsea Girls" film soundtrack (a rare part that Ondine isn't ranting over in split-screen, lol) & a found excerpt from the web (part @ end w/ announcer).

Louie Lou Reed & John Cale & Nico=not nice

Moe and Sterling=nice

(Laurie Anderson=so nice she's a little creepy)

@desertshore Sterling I missed entirely --all the other originals I saw as solo acts including Mo who I just walked backstage and met (we had a mutual acquaintance) she was very nice. Nico and John were a bit less so. Lou I have seen perform but not met.
