it's further down

@@XZYOE down where?

every singer wants to sound like Adele or fucking Rodney Stewart.

But, Lou is not trying to be someone like Sinatra - Uptown Mafia Clone Wanna Be... which is the most likely reason why he became so popular in the first place!! Lou never had the backing of the New York Mob, nor did he have a music industry supporting him at all, unlike Sinatra. The Mob, most likely, bribed, or else, used Violence to get their man more airplay on American radio. Payola and corruption within the American and British music industry has always been part of the popular music genre. --- Lou is like the Lower-East-Side, or, downtown version of Sinatra, I think. At least, Lour wrote all of his songs unlike Sinatra and Stewart. Wow, so many famous stars have had other people write songs for them to sing.

late 71/early 72

if I find it I will try and post it. I saw it before on facebook it could still be there! :)

@@petec9201 link?

There was a facebook page dedicated to Andy which had video of him on the Carson show. You might find video of him there.

It very well could have been an animal

Actually nevermind, I looked more into it.

Update : I just re-read the article. Nothing in their statement makes me believe that it was a mentally disabled person. It sounds to me like this was someone from a well to do family. Or even a Cop's relative. That's why they are covering it up. They just say the person who killed Andy isn't responsible. But that doesn't make any sense. It's total BS. This family deserves answers and closure. *“A recent call to former Chamber of Commerce president Don Reynolds confirmed this: “About two years [after the murder], someone from the sheriff’s department called and said, well, we found out who did it, but we can’t tell you, and we don’t want to have any news release about it,” he said over the phone yesterday. The department, he said, had told him that Andy’s killer was “somebody that was not responsible”-suggesting that they were perhaps mentally disabled, or otherwise not in control of their actions. (Sheriff Magee did not respond to a request for comment.)”* That statement is utter bullshit. Somebody not responsible, doesn’t mean they were mentally incompetent. It doesn’t mean anything at all. It’s vague as hell. It’s a statement that attempts to absolve the killer of all responsibility.

hope whoever did such a disgusting thing gets comeuppance in one way or another, and the cops who covered it up deserve it just as bad

it was probably an animal that killed him, that's why whoever did it was not responsible. whoever "did it" probably just opened the cage as a prank or to say hi to him

@@goomberrAndy was skinned. Animals don't do that.

A goose with shoose

Ellis Craddock it is very sad, but at least we can always cherish Andy existed and has a special place in our hearts.

Amen. Poor Andy. I'm feel sorry for him. He's very adorable & cute.

Oh you mean unknown perpetrator right?

@@ellisjahfinelcraddock Unknown only to the public. Gene Flemming's Granddaughter found out the Sheriffs discovered who did it two years after the fact and kept it a secret. They never said why they covered it up. Supposedly the language in the report insinuates the individual was not "mentally responsible for their actions" etc...I'm sorry, but decapitating and skinning an animal alive is serial killer shit. The person who did this should have been placed in an institution at least for a few years. The Sheriffs shouldn't have covered this up. That poor man Gene Fleming never got any closure. What he got was rapid mental degeneration from the shock of not only loosing his animal but HOW he lost him. He got Alzheimer's fast. Andy helped keep him steady on the mental side. They deserved justice. Not a cover up. I could care less what excuse they came up with. It isn't a Cop's job to cover something up. They are paid to do a job. Not to cover something up because of whatever random reason they come up with. They should be fired and charged with obstruction of justice. And the name revealed to the authorities and to the Fleming family. www.atlasobscura.com/articles/the-goose-who-wore-nikes-and-the-mystery-of-who-murdered-him

Yeah, me too, I thought it one of his mad short stories at first.

" The Velvets never had a decent producer"...Well the VU were produced by Tom Wilson on WL/WH and the VU and Nico ...One of the best producer in the 60's.

@@nicorigo5661 you saved me from saying it. Tom Wilson gets far too little respect- there's not many producers who'd have known what to do with White Light/White Heat.

looks like only 4 are on that VU & another view releases .

I agree!
