Lou Reed

Just read on the BBC  that he's passed away. Not a fan but I recognise his contribution to music. Shame
Hala (from the Anglo-Saxon word "halh", meaning nook or remote valley), until it was gifted by King Henry II to Welsh Prince David Owen and became known as Halas Owen

Like you, not a fan but I recognise how important he's been to so many people...

I hope hope that his last release wasn't that bloody awful thing he did with Metallica...
... but at what point does it stop being CPR and start being like trying to reanimate a corpse?

hey jc I wish I'd got here before you - I feel a bit bad now  in mentioning Lou Reed had a real distaste for the 'RIP' nod - something about it being the microwave meal of obituaries...

Sometimes theres not much else you can say though is there
RIP Lou

safe journey

He made a few of my favourite albums, but those were all from before '76, just sad I never got to see him play.
