Let's hear it live from the Velvet Underground...
This is from the Velvet Underground 1993 reunion tour. The classic lineup featuring Lou Reed, John Cale, Sterling Morrison and Mo Tucker reunited for a brief European tour including a stop at Glastonbury.
From Paris June 1993. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ebGKpouqRqo “The song begins slowly with Reed's quiet, melodic guitar, Sterling Morrison's rhythm guitar, and drum patterns by Maureen Tucker, soon joined by John Cale's droning electric viola. The tempo increases gradually, until a crescendo, punctuated by bow scratching and feedback from Cale's viola and louder, more regular strumming by Reed and Morrison. Tucker's drumming becomes faster and louder. The song then slows to the original tempo, and repeats the same pattern before ending. The song is based on a plagal progression of D♭ and G♭ major chords (I and IV in the key of D♭ major). Like the band's later song "Sister Ray", it features no bass guitar part, with both Reed and Morrison playing guitar. In reference to the song's use of only two chords, Rolling Stone remarked that "it doesn't take much to make a great song.” “and not much more can be improved when shoehorning two chords and just the right amount of words into a few minutes of music.”   Superb and genius. JJ Cale and Lou Reed at their absolute best…

Good job we are all different. Some of us hate Prog Rock...
Quote:
But, may I crave the forums indulgence ? I think Prog Rock is crap, but it's a view that folk can feel free to disagree with me on. Prog rock is so uncool. I pretty much agree with this extract from The Atlantic “The Whitest Music Ever Prog rock was audacious, innovative—and awful “We are the most uncool people in Miami.” So begins, promisingly enough, David Weigel’s The Show That Never Ends: The Rise and Fall of Prog Rock. Weigel, along with 3,000 fellow Yes-heads, Rush-oids, Tull freaks, ELOldies and votaries of King Crimson—cultural underdogs all, twitching and grimacing with revenge-of-the-nerds excitement—is at the port of Miami, about to embark on a five-day progressive-rock-themed cruise: a floating orgy of some of the most despised music ever produced by long-haired white men. Do you like prog rock, the extravagantly conceptual and wildly technical post-psychedelic subgenre that ruled the world for about 30 seconds in the early 1970s before being torn to pieces by the starving street dogs of punk rock? Do you like the proggers, with their terrible pampered proficiency, their priestly robes, and their air—once they get behind their instruments—of an inverted, almost abscessed Englishness?” Well now I’m here, better spin a disc. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xtjcrGCjEms And it’s not Prog Rock...
