I began my book "Love Goes to Buildings on Fire" with The New York Dolls, because of course I did. In memory of David Johansen.
Thanks. Love Goes… and Please Kill Me are two of my favorite books on the NYC music scene in the 70s.
Nice... that's great to hear, thanks for reading, Dennis
One of the great repetitive rhyming schemes in all of rock music as employed by David Johansen to great effect on his 1978 self-titled debut: https://youtu.be/Otrt0iH9ubw?si=LMQfu7TlsYfc7ADZ
The song is “Frenchette”.
Good piece. Some years ago, I was playing bass in a punk tribute band (no, really), and I spent a lot of my limited political capital as a bass player trying to convince the rest of the guys that we should play “personality crisis,” heh.
A worthy cause.
Thanks. Most don't know they started at Mercer.
Yes, true. That place deserves a book unto itself.
It does. My friends, the Magic Tramps, built the stage there.
Thank you.
You’re welcome C, thx for reading.
