Lou Reed RIP

Lou Reed has died today aged 71. Drink and drugs finally caught up with him.

They don't come any more influential than Lou Reed an The Velvet Underground.

R.I.P

 

Aw **** he was a total hero of mine. It was inevitable I suppose the photos after the liver stuff were the stuff of nightmare. I was going to put him on the thread of nutter rockers today as well. Worst musical death for me since Lennon

Yeah I suppose it was. Even the photo the BBC put up made him look already dead. He was wearing these shades that made the whites of his eyes look yellow. I thought it was the liver stuff at first.

I did like that album albeit 20 years later than after its release when I first heard it ,'Coney Island Baby' just something about it,I'll play it tomorrow

 

"Sister Ray" is a great VU song - 17 minutes long!

Screeching Weasel can do 20 songs in that time.

 

F*** me, I didn't even realise he had died until this weekend.
RIP

 

Neither did he RH.
