Title: R.I.P Lou Reed

One of the greatest ever musicians passes away and surprisingly there hasn't been a thread on this.  
 
Makes you wonder with the absolute garbage brought out these days with every Tom, Dick and Harry masquerading as a musician that it's only a matter of time until all the classics pass away.

Could have sworn this was a footy forum!

RIP anyway.

Why have a section titled "Blah Blah Bar" for such things then if discussion is strictly footy. 
 
Geez.  ::)

Nah not saying it doesn't belong. Just giving a reason as to why no one would have started it. Sheesh! :P

Velvet underground were one of the great bands. I also rate the album "New York" as one of the classics.

Lou Reed's live album "Rock And Roll Animal" - simply a classic.

Some of the stuff with VU is legendary too.

Yes, a real classic!

It's a sad loss but somewhat surprising that he lasted so long - must have had a similar constitution to Keith Richards.

RIP

Seen him in concerts a number of times and never once played longer than 55 minutes. Never stopped me from going back. Take a Walk on The Wild Side, a timeless classic.

We can find a footy connection. The long highlights to the 99 prelim on YouTube have Perfect Day as the backing music :-D

RIP to a very influential musician.
