New York City rock legend Lou Reed died Sunday, according to a report.
The cause of death was not immediately known, but the legendary Velvet Underground singer, 71, underwent a liver transplant in May, Rolling Stone said.

Sail on Lou - you were a true rock and roll animal, and you wil be missed...

Re: Sail On Lou Reed
Maybe the best quote I've read yet, this one comes from Steve Albini, perhaps best known for producing Nirvana's Nevermind album:
I didn't have the kind of epiphany many people did to VU or Reed's music. I liked some of it, loved some of it, and didn't care for some, but the arc of his whole thing is just undeniably great and inspirational. 50 years of following his muse, whatever it happened to be at the moment. His music will either hit you or not, but one thing ought to matter to anybody who thinks music or art is worth pursuing for its own sake; Lou Reed, he did not give a f*ck. Did not give a single f*ck. I think of myself as not giving a f*ck most of the time, but once in a while I wish to christ I could give not a f*ck as thoroughly as Lou Reed.
