The Velvet Underground: rock’n’roll misfits
CHARLIE GILLETT COLLECTION/REDFERNS
PANORAMIC VU
Jonathan Richman’s musings on The Velvet Underground [May issue] were nothing short of enlightening. A fan’s insider take on rock’n’roll’s misfits was pure joy. Hendrix a more conventional player than Cale? Ace! And Doug Yule on the receiving end of some good vibes, wow. It’s like that E flat never happened. More insider pieces, please. That’s not to say your staff writers don’t kick ass. They do, on a monthly basis. Don’t stop.

Thanks, Simon! It was certainly a coup getting Jonathan involved. Now if only we could persuade him to talk about his own music… [MB]
LOVING THE AMBIENT
As a proud owner of all 288 issues of Uncut I would like to thank you and congratulate you all on another terrific magazine this month. A great range of articles and reviews. The Ambient Americana CD is an absolute joy to listen to – right up there (in my humble opinion!) with the original Sounds Of The New West CD from way back when. Keep up the good work (in these crazy times).
