though i like richard hell, he couldnt compare to thunders. i guess its because he didnt have the whole "too fast to live, too young to die" thing going for him. if only the two of them could have gotten over their egos. the heartbreakers would have been huge.

How did this turn into a "who's better" between Richard Hell and Johnny Thunders? What the fuck's wrong with you people?

Thanks for the great interview, DRE.
