Why is Lou Reed such a big star when John Cale was the talented one?

there are some loaded fans here, watch out
>John Cale was the talented one?
I thought that, but if you listen to Johns solo career, it sounds nothing like that

Paris 1919 is better than anything Reed ever put out, including anything with TVU

Jewish nepotism

I really like this album, but I don't like any other album of theirs I've listened to. So I get it.

'fraid not

they were both talented, but only when together. that's why their solo work is crappy. they needed each other.

John Cale's work with Nico isn't to bad.

Not even the most important punkers from the lower east side. The Fugs and David Peel are better and funnier.

I'll grant Paris 1919 weirdly sounds like it comes from centuries ago. That impressed me but I wish more of it was like the title track or andalucia.

lou and cale have some solid work, but lou needed a good backing band to get his ideas across (quality of his solo work depends entirely on who's with him) and cale has no quality control whatsoever.
i'm surprised songs for drella isn't more circlejerked since it's really their only non TVU collab work
>>127735980
depends, although i'm willing to bet cale handled most of the work on the actual composition end
