Lou Reed, musician, died today. He was 71 (Rolling Stone). Just one day earlier, voiceover actress Marcia Wallace died at 70. What a sad weekend.
Reed had a brilliant solo career after being in The Velvet Underground, a band he formed with musician John Cale that collaborated with Andy Warhol.
Reports aren’t yet confirmed as to what Reed died of. Recently he was hospitalized for dehydration.
He was a big fan of Kanye’s latest album.
Rest in peace, Mr. Reed, on the wild side.
