If not for Lou Reed I do not think any of the music i really love would exist. Lou was that influential.
RIP Lou.

Yes. I believe they married in 2008.

Sad news for sure. Another great musician passed away, but his music makes him immortal.
Thanks for the beautiful songs Lou.
Rest In Peace.

Went to the shrine auditorium in spring of 68 to see some music. Didnt know who was playing. turned out it was:
Dr John-1st lp tour, heavy vodoo vibe scared the hippies who moved away from stage
Velvet Underground with Nico-heavy urban NY industrial strength (contrast to first act)
Closing was Electric Flag-Bloomfield,Miles,Gravinitis,Brooks,Sanborn. My head was spinning for days.
Thanks Lou for all you gave.

A nice obituary Sasha Frere-Jones remembers Lou Reed : The New Yorker

We went to see Mark Lanegan in the beautiful setting of the Union Chapel in London on Friday night, and this was a highlight moment (but the recording I've picked happens to be a better recording from another night).
