	The Austin Chronicle Music: Velvet Underdog
		Sterling Morrison was a gentleman and a scholar, a curmudgeon, a sweetheart, a sinner, a saint.
		Sterling sort of acknowledges me, saying, "Oh, what are you now, some sort of flack for a record company?" I took it from him, because one thing I learned over the years is you don't win an argument with Sterling.
		Sterling told me he wanted to spare Gail the horror of the illness, that she was young and needed to get on with her life without him.

		It proved to be the definitive end to the band's checkered career when Sterling Morrison died of cancer in 1995.

		These are a few words about Sterling Morrison, the guy who made me want to be a guitarist, the guy who played the most beautiful guitar solo in history (Pale Blue Eyes), and the guy who nobody outside of fans of the Velvets has probably ever heard of.
		The Velvets' and Sterling Morrison's legacy is alive in the succeeding generations of bands that push the envelope of rock music.
		The other is that Sterling seemed like he was probably one of the happiest of the VU crowd, that he'd found pleasure in the simpler things in life.

		According to Morrison, the Velvet stayed at the Chateau Marmont in L.A. during the sessions for the third album.
