He learned early on.

Go to his wiki page and scroll down to "Them 1964 - 1967".

Skip to "Toward the end of the tour..." and read about Phil Solomon, Bert Berns, Berns' widow Ilene, Warner Brothers, and the "revenge" songs.

>You familiar with Lou Reed and the story of his late 1970s album "Metal Machine Music"?

I recall some writer at RS (Jann Wenner, maybe?) saying it was unlistenable, while some writer at Cream (Lester Bangs, probably) proclaimed it genius. Though I've heard Velvet Underground and Lou Reed's solo stuff, I was never a big fan.

All that was before I learned of the stranglehold the tribe has on the music industry.
