Lou Reed One of Rock music's greatest legends with a story that could fill a book, Reed first came to prominence as the guitarist and principal singer-songwriter of the classical rock band "The Velvet Underground" (1965-1973). It is an undoubted fact that, while the band has never really been that successful on the mainstream charts, it has still been highly influential in the transformation of Rock and particularly as proponents of emerging Rock genres, including: experimental, post-punk, new wave, and Indie rock.
