What a loss. I remember him mainly for the Hunter/Wagner team on the Lou Reed albums. 'R&R Animal' and 'Live'.

Thanks for that info, I was totally infatuated by the Sweet Jane intro on that record and spent some hours learning it note for note by lifting the needle off the record. I always thought it was Steve Hunter who played the amazing lead parts but I guess I'll have to acknowledge Mr. Wagner now too. peace

yes Natural. I think Hunter plays most the leads on the whole album. One can hear his LP. To me it always sounds like DW was playing an SG. The best thing about that duo, and esp, those albums is to listen to both of them on each side of stereo, and see them swapping off. DW often has a phaser on. That intro - while SH is playing the solos and the chief melody, DW's parts are as essential.
You most likely have already checked this out, but if not: on the 'Live" album they do a version of "Oh Jim" that escalates into one of those classic guitar solo battles where they throw lines at each other; back and forth. Great!
