Ngomhla esadibana noLou: Xa uDavid Bowie wazisa uLou Reed eBrithani kwi-1972, ihlabathi lomculo latshintshwa ngonaphakade. Isimbo sobuchule sikaReed kunye nendlela eyodwa yokubhala iingoma zaba nefuthe kwisizukulwana seemvumi. U-Bowie ngokwakhe wathi uReed 'ngomnye wabaculi ababalulekileyo kwi-rock & roll.' Namhlanje, uLou Reed uthathwa njengomnye wamanani abalulekileyo kunye nefuthe kumculo odumileyo.

Ubuhlobo phakathi kukaLou Reed kunye noDavid Bowie lelinye laloo maxesha omculo we-rock kunye ne-rock eyenza intliziyo yakho ibe shushu kwaye ididekile. Esi sibini sasingahlukani ngokuyilayo ngamaxesha amaninzi kumsebenzi wabo kwaye ngamnye wafumana intuthuzelo komnye.

U-Bowie uza kuqhubeka nokuvelisa irekhodi eyedwa likaReed Umtshintshi kwaye uReed uya kuqhubeka ebhengeza uBowie njengomnye weemvumi ezinkulu ezakha zaphila. Ngo-1972, u-Bowie wathatha ithuba lakhe kwikonsathi yeHolo yoMnyhadala waseLondon ukuze azise iBritane kuLou Reed kodwa naye waziqinisa njengentsomi.

Wayeyinkosi, utshilo uBowie xa esiva iindaba zokusweleka ‘komhlobo wakhe wakudala’ uReed—kwaye kunzima ukuxoxa. NgeVelvet Underground kunye nomsebenzi wakhe eyedwa, uReed ubonise uhlobo lomculo we-alt-pop ongathandekiyo nodume kakubi oya kwenza uReed abe luhlobo lwesithixo kwindawo yeerekhodi. Ifaniswe kuphela ngumhlobo wakhe kunye nomdibanisi uBowie.

Esi sibini sadibana ngo-1971 njengoko u-Bowie-kungekhona inkwenkwezi enkulu ngeli xesha ngayo nayiphi na ingcamango-yaziswa kuReed nguTony Zanetta, umlingiswa oya kuba ngumphathi we-Bowie's 'Diamond Dogs Tour'. UZanetta wabamba iliso likaBowie xa ebonisa uAndy Warhol kwifilimu Inyama yehagu , wayeza kwazisa uBowie kuWarho l no-Iggy Pop ngeli veki inye.

UZanetta wakha wathi kudliwano-ndlebe: Ndicinga ukuba, bavana kakuhle. U-Lou wayengoyena mfo waseNew York okrelekrele. Kodwa ndicinga ukuba yena noDavide babelumkile omnye komnye. Kwaba ngathi sisiqalo sothando. Bezilinganisa omnye komnye. ULou wayekukuziphatha kwakhe okuhle noDavid kwaye emva kwesidlo sangokuhlwa, saya kwisiXeko saseKansas sikaMax.

Aba babini babetha ngokudumileyo kwaye bafuna ukusebenza kunye. U-Bowie, kunye noMick Ronson, uya kuqhubeka nokuvelisa i-1972 LP Umtshintshi . Esi sibini siza kuqhubeka singabahlobo ubomi kude kube sekufeni kukaReed ngo-2013, nangona yayingasoloko ihamba kakuhle. UReed wabetha uBowie ebusweni ngexesha lengxabano yesidlo sangokuhlwa ngo-1979 emva kokuba uBowie ecebise uReed ukuba acoce isenzo sakhe. UReed waphendula, ngoburhalarhume: Sukuthetha loo nto kum! Ungaze uyithethe lonto kum!

Kodwa nangona le mpazamo, bobabini babesoloko befunyanwa kunye xa kunokwenzeka. Bafumana intuthuzelo ekuqondeni omnye komnye ubomi babo obuphambeneyo. UReed wade wajoyina uBowie kwimibhiyozo yakhe yokuzalwa engama-50 ukuze adlale ikhava ekhethekileyo yeVelvet Underground's 'Waiting for the Man' apho uBowie waqhubeka egubungela kuyo yonke imisebenzi yakhe.
