    Default Lou Reed, Velvet Underground frontman, dies at 71

    Another Rock legend dies.

    I was a fan of the Velvet Underground from day one.

    From The BBC

    Known for tracks including Perfect Day and Walk on the Wild Side, Reed
    was considered one of the most influential singers and songwriters in rock.

    The Velvet Underground became renowned for their fusion of art and
    music and for collaborating with Andy Warhol.

    According to the Associated Press news agency, Reed's literary agent
    said he died of a "liver-related ailment".

    I had the VU banana album, the title of which doesn't come to mind at this moment.

    The only Lou Reed music I've ever heard is on the 'Lost Highway' soundtrack. Damn good music, damned good musician. RIP.
