Quote of the Day (Lou Reed, on Rock ‘n’ Roll Chords)



"One chord is fine. Two chords are pushing it. Three chords and you're into jazz."—Lou Reed, describing his simple guitar technique, quoted in Jon Dolan, “Lou Reed, Velvet Underground Leader and Rock Pioneer, Dead at 71,” RollingStone.com, October 27, 2013
