Another great bites the dust. Lou left the world some great music, despite the crap that  Metal Machine Music was, Rock'n'Roll Animal and Transformer are two of rock musics great albums. 'Walk on the Wild Side' is one of the all time great singles and it's still played on the radio. I still smile when I think of the 'even when she was giving head' line somehow getting through the strict seventies radio censorship. Lou played hard and his liver finally chucked it in and he underwent a liver transplant in May but there were still problems which eventually took him out at the age of 71. He definitely walked on the wild side.

Rest in piece Lou.
 His choice of music wasn`t up there  on my favourite list, I do respect him as an artist, I don`t like talking music. Just like that other fellow that brought out a song called Hit me with your Rhythm stick, hit me slowly or hit me quick. (Hate that Song, know thought went into those lyrics.
