Lou Reed Took His Last Walk On The Wild Side

His “Walk on the Wild Side” is the song that plays every time our phone rings – that’s how much we like hearing it. Back in the Andy Warhol days, we thought Lou’s band “The Velvet Underground” sounded like a bunch of guys banging pots and pans, but we likes some of his later work. Lou died today in New York at the age of 71. No cause of death was given, but he had a liver transplant six months ago. (Above, Lou with Patti Smith)
