^ Thanks, s_k, maybe I`ll put them on my " Check out some other day " list !

Most of what I know about Warhol comes from a wonderful movie about his rise to fame called I Shot Andy Warhol, so I`m no expert either, but I think all he really did was give Velvet Underground a chance when no-one else wanted to book them. He put them in his Factory, where all the New York artists were turning up, so they got a lot of very useful exposure, but the music was all down to the band, wasn`t it ? Warhol just let them do their thing, I think.
