Velvet Influence

From Wikipedia’s article on the Velvet Undergound:

Although never commercially successful during their time, the Velvet Underground have been regarded as one of the most important and influential groups of their era. A famous remark, often attributed to British musician Brian Eno, is that while only a few thousand people bought the first Velvet Underground record upon its release, almost every single one of them was inspired to start a band.
