Description
.Formed in 1971 in New York City, and originally classified as hard rock, the New York Dolls became one of the creators of punk rock before there was even a term for it. With a line-up of vocalist David Johansen, guitarist Johnny Thunders, bassist Arthur Kane, guitarist Sylvain Sylvain and drummer Billy Murcia, the New York Dolls sported an androgynous wardrobe of high heels, eccentric hats, make-up and satin onstage, and in the words of the Encyclopedia of Popular Music were "one of the most influential rock bands of the last 20 years", boasting such high profile fans as Morrissey, the Sex Pistols, The Ramones, Kiss, Guns N' Roses and The Damned..Includes early versions of acknowledged New York Dolls' classics: 'Jet Boy', 'Trash', 'Personality Crisis', 'Puss 'n' Boots', 'Stranded In The Jungle', 'Babylon', 'Who Are The Mystery Girls', 'Bad Girl' and 'Pills'..Come in a beautifully designed clamshell box set containing its own booklet with full sleeve notes, plus individual card wallets for each of the discs..All material contained within this package has been specially remastered for this release.
