Looking at UK releases the first publishing company lou used as a solo artist was Warlock. Sunbury appears late 72-76. Oakfield is American (?) so that name will appear with the USA imported copies?. No publishing credit for the songs co-written by Cale!. If "copyright control" covers the time before lou had a uk publishing deal makes sense that copy came first or at the same time as Oakfield?.
I think Oakfield Avenue Music (apparently Lou Reed's publishing company from 1972 onwards) came before Sunbury Music (RCA UK's publishing company); Lou Reed's US RCA singles before mid-1973 show Oakfield Avenue as the sole publisher, but from the "Vicious" single onwards he shared publishing with RCA's BMI publisher Dunbar Music (in the US, Sunbury was RCA's ASCAP affiliate, and Sunbury Music Ltd. in the UK represented both Dunbar and Sunbury). I'm not sure where exactly Copyright Control comes in (and that's not a publisher as such, that's just the term used by record companies when the songs publisher(s) in the release country can't be determined, or hasn't yet been established) - my guess is that this was used for Reed's previous publisher Three Prong Music, which is the publisher listed on the US Verve singles by this band, and Reed probably hadn't signed a UK (or international?) publishing deal then.
