I've always wondered if on Washing Machine the song they are referencing the story about the velvet underground and their ban on blues scales, since the instrumental part owes big time to both the velvets (the guitars which fade in after KG's singing in the first part of the song are very VU) and blues. I do wonder since Thurston Moore likes his rock history parables, so in my mind it makes sense that they would have a go. Probably it's just pure coincidence.
