"Someday Quine will be recognized for the pivotal figure that he is on his instrument, he is the first guitarist to take the breakthroughs of early Lou Reed and James Williamson and work through them to a new, individual vocabulary, driven into odd places by obsessive attention to 'On The Corner' era Miles Davis." (Lester Bangs)

(In a recent Invisible Jukebox that Lou Reed did for The Wire, he was played Miles' 'He Loved Him Madly' and professed to not knowing it but agreeing that it sounded very similar to his Metal Machine Trio. Should have listened to Quine...)

Wow! Thanx for all those great links Mona. Met Quine in the early 80's backstage at a Lou Reed show. Spent all night talking music and drinking. Such a warm, generous man. Unlike Lou.
