The music was about as basic as you can get , I`ll admit they had a good musician in the band in John Cale , but he buggered off the first chance he got.

I don't think any of the musicians were bad, they at least tried a different approach, and they made up for what they lacked in skill with creativity... Plus Sterling Morrison and Lou Reed had great chemestry together.
