Nico
Nico (Christa Paffgen) was lead singer for “The Velvet Underground” which also featured Lou Reed. They hung around Andy Warhol who also did the banana peel cover for their debut album. She “split” the band shortly thereafter. Her other claim to fame was that she blew Jim Morrison in an elevator. Both her and her daughter were hooked on heroin. She crashed her bicycle and died from a cerebral hemorrhage on July 18th of 1988 at the age of 44.
