The Velvet Underground, often cited as an influence on bands and singers in the 1970s and 1980s, had a frequently changing lineup but consisted of Lou Reed on guitar and vocals, Sterling Morrison on guitar, Angus MacLise on drums, and John Cale on multiple instruments when it first formed in 1965. The band changed members, broke up and got back together again from 1965 to 1993, when it released a live album. The band is known for songs such as "Sunday Morning," "I'll Be Your Mirror," "I'm Waiting for the Man," "All Tomorrow's Parties" and "Here She Comes Now."
