| Details: |
New York Dolls: David Johansen (vocals, harmonica); Sylvain Sylvain (guitar, piano, background vocals); Johnny Thunders (guitar, background vocals); Arthur Harold Kane (bass instrument); Jerry Nolan (drums). Additional personnel: Buddy Bowser (saxophone); Todd Rundgren (piano, Moog synthesizer). Recording information: The Record Plant, New York, New York. Along with the Stooges, the New York Dolls were largely responsible for pioneering the sound and attitude of punk, and this, their self-titled debut, is one of the founding documents of post-'60s rock. Outrageous, shambolic, and bursting with energy, the Dolls borrowed from the amped-up, bluesy swagger of the Rolling Stones, the pop confections of Phil Spector, and the campy theatricality that would flower with the glam movement, yet brought it all together with a visceral impact that recalled the jolt of early rock & roll. |
