The New Orleans pianist draws playful inspiration from the German composer.

The resolutely independent artist's fourth album is a musically inventive, emotionally direct, razor-sharp triumph.

Editors' Choice for October, 2024

AllMusic Staff Pick - November 16, 2024

October, 1967

Nico had just recently been pushed out of the Velvet Underground when she cut her first solo album, but they were still a strong presence on 1967's Chelsea Girl. Lou Reed, Sterling Morrison, and John Cale all played and wrote songs for this project. The production was fancier than the VU's work of the period, but the blend of baroque and minimalist influences was effective, and "It Was A Pleasure Then" is gloriously hypnotic.
