"massively influential"?I don't think so. He always influenced me to listen to something else.

A very very sad day for those of us into depressing music. Ironically this has been a great year for us with lots of amazing non-cheerful music coming out.

A total bum.
I stood in line once for about an hour to get his autograph and for him to just mention a few words for my teenage daughter for whom I was getting the book as a gift. He blew me off and just signed his name. The line was only about twenty deep. When I told my daughter, she blew him off too.
RIP I suppose.

Looked like a corpse for the last 10 years anyway.

I was talking to somebody just the other day about 80's music. Reed's, "New York," was for me, one of the defining albums of that decade. Yes, he was a rabid leftist, but one hell of a musician.

He shall be missed by his fans, and his detractors, both, for reasons known unto them, only.
His music was something different to hear, in my during-and-post-Vietnam years. Avant-garde folks are always seen as ‘a little strange’, but he and the others have become part of our national musical identity, whether we, ourselves, think they deserved it, or not.

The ObamaCare Death Panels in New York wouldn’t give him a liver transplant so he got it done in Ohio instead. Typical liberal hypocrisy. Death Panels for thee but not for me.

Everybody on Fakebook wants to let me know that they know that Lou Reed, whoever he is, has croaked!

I liked his music-my musical tastes are broad-I have “Lulu”, but I liked his jazzy stuff best-
“Holly came from Miami FLA,
Hitch-hiked her way across the USA
Plucked her eyebrows on the way
Shaved her legs and then he was a she”
71 is young to die-but with a transplant, and years of burning the candle at both ends, maybe not so much...

“Walk on the Wild Side” was of course Lou’s take on the scene around Andy Warhol in New York. All the names check out.

Thanks for the music. RIP.
Coincidentally, just saw a commercial using his song “Perfect Day” and thought it a little bizarre.

Maybe it’s just me, but I always thought he was over-rated

Rock’n’Roll Animal is in my top five live albums, just a fantastic guitar driven frenzy of rock. Dick Wagner and Steve Hunter play duel lead guitar, and later went on to join the Alice Cooper band. I could never get into the Velvet era or his solo studio albums. Supposedly Velvet fans don’t dig it too much and Lou Reed himself came out and said he wasn’t a fan of it. Maybe it wasn’t whiny or brooding enough.
RIP
