While discussing the impact of 1967's The Velvet Underground & Nico, the debut album by the influential Lou Reed-led group, Brian Eno acknowledged in a 1982 interview that the album had only sold 30,000 copies, but added "everyone who bought one of those 30,000 copies started a band."
You might add that everyone that started one of those bands went on to cover a Velvet Underground or Lou Reed song.
In tribute to Reed, who died Sunday of liver disease, here's a look back at some of the greatest covers of his songs.
"Oh! Sweet Nuthin'," Neil Young & Friends
On the same day that Reed died, an allstar cast of musicians gathered onstage at Neil Young's annual Bridge School Benefit Concerts in Mountain View, California and paid homage to Reed. As an introduction to this allstar rendition of "Oh! Sweet Nuthin'," originally recorded by the Velvets for their 1970 album Loaded, My Morning Jacket frontman Jim James calls Reed "one of the greatest composers/musicians/artists that ever walked the face of the earth." He's joined by Young, Elvis Costello, Jenny Lewis, and others. Even Lou would be proud.
