Ron Davies Obit: Lou Reed (1942-2013) (23) RE: Obit: Lou Reed (1942-2013) 30 Oct 13


Heard a fascinating interview on "Fresh Air" on him a few days ago--think it was with his publicist (interesting he had one).

Seems he had a complex relationship with lots of folks.

Despised "Rolling Stone" since it was based on the West Coast and had, he thought, no respect for NY musicians--but wanted to be on the cover (too much listening to Dr. Hook?). And got his wish about 1989.

Also, as everybody knows, very close to Warhol---but realized that Warhol sometimes used people.   Especially uneasy with Warhol's constant taping and taking pictures.
