The Rolling StonesCurrent Lecture The Wild Side of the 60s- The Velvet Undergroundo Lou Reed was the songwriter, and he thought of himself as a poet.o They were not commercially successful.o Andy Warhol pushed the edges and liked to upset people. He had a background in graphic design. Warhol became known for his pop art. o The Velvet Underground became the band for Warhol’s artistic events in The Factory in NYC. o The Exploding Plastic Inevitable were events where The Velvet Underground played while S&M and flashing lights were occurring. o Their first album was The Velvet Underground & Nico. “Heroin” was one song on this album. This song followed the drug’s ways and contained distortion. This showed that they were misfits and not part of the psychedelic rock scene. - The Doorso Jim Morrison was the major songwriter of The Doors.

One song is “She’s A Rainbow.”o The Rolling Stones kept pushing their bad boy image.o Their song “Sympathy for the Devil” was interesting lyrically. Also, people thought that they were devil worshippers because of it.o They attended the Altamont Concert. This concert was similar to Woodstock, but it was more chaotic.
