R.I.P. Lou Reed

I have always had a soft spot for Lou, and not sure why, in that I really do not know that much about him or his music, beyond the obvious. Maybe for the reason related by Airegin. Definitely a guy who influenced many and that retained a special place in their hearts and minds accordingly. That says a lot.

I was a big Lost In Space fan as a kid and whenever I hear 'rest in peace" I think of that stupid head in a box from the episode "Treasure of the Lost Planet" saying "too bad, too bad, rest in peace , rest in peace" whenever one of the guest characters snuffed it hunting for the "treasure". Any one besides me remember that one?
