Dead at 71.

Big loss that. Brilliant performer and songwriter for the last 50 years. So many classics songs - Walk on the Wild Side, Perfect Day and many more.

Rest in Peace Lou.

Massive influence on pop music culture, both with the Velvets and his solo work....so many bands have acknowledged a debt to him and the VU - a true icon whose toenail had more talent than the dross we get served up with now rip Lou
