A friend has just texted me the very sad news that Lou Reed has died.
Scott has posted a very moving and apt tribute.
It is hard to imagine how music would have panned out and how much poorer all our record collections would have been without the influence of Lou and the Velvet Underground.
The word legend is overused but is totally justified in this instance.
RIP Lou
Velvet Underground - I'm Waiting For the Man
Lou Reed - Satellite of Love
Terribly sad news. As you say the word legend is way overused but in Lou Reed's case it is totally justified.
