Quagmire Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 Died today age 71. Someone deserving of the status 'Legend'. Both the Velvet Underground & his solo material were genius. Loaded being a favourite album of mine. 'Please kill me - The uncensored history of punk rock' is also worth a read if you're interested in the whole New York scene of the 70/80s Link to comment

Ke1t Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 I thought he died around 1982. Same... saw news of his death and had one of those, "He wasn't dead already?" moments. One of my personal favourites... Goth as fuck. Link to comment
ChutneyLove Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Probably never looked after himsel that well. I'm guessing a smoker and a drinker - so probably did well to get to 71, old leatherface. Link to comment

alscotoz Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Transformer one of my all time favourite albums. Boy wiz a genius. Same here. His music influenced a lot of stuff through the years esp punk. Liked VU as well. They had a song called 'The Gift' that was well fuct up esp after one too many bongs. Salut, Lou. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PK4DeMYtumc - one of my favourites. Link to comment
