new york dolls
i decided to start with New York Doll's jet boy video, maybe 'cause i'm listing to them right now.
for those who didn't know who the dolls are (shame on you!)
they started in 1971 in new york with David Johansen(voc) Johnny Thunders (guitar, R.I.P.) Billy Murcia (dr,R.I.P., he died in 1972 and was repleced by Jerry Nolan) Arthur 'Killer' Kane (bass, R.I.P.) and Sylvain Sylvain(guitar- although Rick Rivets played at begining but he was replaced). they play straight-in-your-face rock'n roll (some calls them protopunk or glam punk). the Dolls had looks, attitude and some major writing skills. sadly they broke up after 5 years in 1976 but surviving members reunite in 2004.
i consider them as one of the best and most underrated bands ever!
