Absolutely...Velvet Underground...they never played them on the radio in the 60's, at least I don't remember. 40 or so years later and my sons love "Walk On The Wild Side"....

Do, dodo, dodo, dodododo, do, dodo, dodo....

just saw that...all my rock and roll heroes are dropping by the wayside. lou reed was a true pioneer.

wow he was 71. i never thought he would last this long RIP

saw a quote today, will paraphase "his first record only sold 10,000 copies. But each of those people went and formed a band."

RIP

Very interesting cat. Enjoyed some of his interviews and the insights provided therein as much as I enjoyed his music (and I did enjoy his music).
