I seem to remember reading that KISS was part of the whole glam/trash scene at the Mercer Arts Center along with the Dolls, Wayne County and others in the early '70s.

As a side note...Matador Records has just put out an outstanding 2CD Richard Hell retrospective called "Time." It features 4 tunes from when he was with the Heartbreakers, including what must be the earliest recorded version of "Chinese Rocks." Great stuff!

I've been a fan of the NY Dolls ever since I was in college in the mid-90s. I was inspired to give them a listen by Robert Christgau's essay in "Stranded: Rock and Roll for a Desert Island." (FWIW, it's much more readable than Christgau's Pazz 'n' Jop essays.) They're very high on my list of bands that I wish that I had been around to see in their prime.

Love the Heartbreakers! I appreicaite the 'Dolls, but I have always liked the Heratbreakers more. Whilst I was still in Minneapplepus, my band played with several other local "superstar" (combos from other bands) groups for a Halloween "band tribute" night. We threw our best approximation of the Gun Club in with a Misfits and a Descendents effort. However, the prize of the night was the Hearbreakers tribute were the players even had the same guitars, look, and in between song drunken/drug-addled banter down to a tee!

BTW, Good stuff Go Go! Y'all cumming down to the Atl anytime soon?

Did you ever expect such a Frankenstein?

I love both.

Johnny Thunders has a rare solo acoustic lp on New Rose records that's completely brilliant. Check it out if you can find it.

The New York Dolls? Johnny Thunders? Hanoi Rocks? Who the hell are these guys? But I remember this one time, at a party, this Murcia kid got really fucked up and passed out, so we put him in a tub of water, to help him come too...wonder what happened to him?
