A sad day for rock and roll. His smooth sound and evocative lyrics defined his songs.

Dead, dead as a door nail ...
 
I was just the other day reading on The Rolling Stone about his life/times and opinions .
 
Rip , Lou ...

He took a walk on the wild side and developed a rock and roll liver. It's amazing how some candles burn out early while others seemingly rock on without a flicker.

Go easy, Lou. Just played Transformer last week- brilliant album.

Just read this news - 0:08 into 28th. It brought a tear to my eye.
 
We will miss you. RIP, Lou.

No rocker ever was NY like Lou was.

Guess he and Andy get to be pals again.

"Walk On the Wild Side"?
Naaah! (Though I love that it pops up on elevator pop in Wall Wart. Who edits those things?)

It's almost Halloween -- let's go with "Halloween Parade".

Thanks Lou.
