Yes. It´s quite amazing they release only four albums that very little people that time wanted to listen but then influenced almost alone the whole new generation ten years later and still influences many. Of course there were also 13th Floor Elevators, Red Crayola, even I find something same Pink Floyd´s two first albums, then Stooges & MC5 little later but I think Velvets were the most important.

I like JAMC, but it has always felt to me somekind poor man´s Velvet.

I think there has been very little to add after Velvet into popular culture if thinking kind of "punk" rock.
