Lou Reed was The Velvet Underground’s lead singer and songwriter, and he had a flourishing solo career that lasted over fifty years. During their time together, The Velvet Underground was not commercially successful but is now considered one of the most influential underground alt-rock bands of its time. Reed abandoned the Velvet Underground in 1970 and released 20 solo records. With his second and third albums, he did well but had several ups and downs. His later records, New Sensations, and New York, brought him alive.
