2013: Lou Reed"
died aged 71 from years of drug and alcohol abuse...
I thought most of his albums were patchy to say the least, I own around seven, some really good tracks
but a lot of filler also,
but he was highly influential as a writer and performer to countless musicians that followed.
here's one of my favourites off my favourite album of his in "New York", I recently purchased "transformer" with
my birthday gift cards but I haven't listened to that one yet so I cant really comment on that one yet:
so back to New York....

back to the Roger Miller...
ive checked up a couple of sources and I cannot find that song released as a single in the US,UK,NZ,Can or Australia, so I guess youre right, it wasn't a single.

Yma Sumac died on this day in 2008. She was a Peruvian singer, purportedly descended from Inca royalty and had a 5 octave range. Thatâs virtually impossible and hugely rare. She was what was referred to as an exotic singer, at the time.
I donât like this at all â too freaky for me, but hey â someone may love it â¦.

She is freaky....makes Bjork sound normal

And another thing....
I'm not criticising toy Ruby but...
I don't get how whoever originally wrote that about her being an Inca descendant could have come to that conclusion because I have a big interest in both Inca and Aztec history and everything I've seen or read about the Incas states they disappeared"without a trace", no known descendants, no nothing, they just vanished????
