In The Metro today it said Lou, "...continued to break new ground with collaborations with Metallica and Lulu."

Fucken twats.

I was genuinely shocked to hear of Uncle Lou's passing, RIP.

Very very sad news.

It was Lou who wanted to make the album with Metallica. I have it in my "So what!" fan club special on the album. They first met at the new york rock n roll hall of fame where he played with Metallica onstage as Metallica wanted to play with a New york resident. Then he brought the idea to them. He was mainly a fan of Kirks guitarplaying at first,as the first reharsel diddn't go to well as lou thought "What there just a bunch of heavy metallers they can't play" then kirk offerd him a piece of his vegetarian hotdog and that sealed the deal.

Among other talents, an outstanding rythym guitarist.

Apolgies for late post, but I fell on hard times and was unable to reply upon his passing.

Had the pleasure of seeing him in Wolverhampton on his last tour. Lovely moment when the lights closed in on centre stage and he played a few velvet numbers.
how did I get down here, well it's a long story
