...i heard The Heartbreakers before i heard The Dolls, so i had to work backwards.
As we all know, their appearance on OGWT was crucial in birthing UK Punk. But i would add that Alice Cooper and David Bowie were an equal influence
Personality Crisis is perhaps the best use of just three chords i have ever heard.

...yeah, apparently Whisperin' Bob was none too keen on Roxy Music and Sparks either Him, dissing The Dolls created a generation gap right at that moment the words left his smug mouth.

I respect Morrissey for giving Killer Kane a last chance in the spotlight though. I forget which doc that is in Was it the Bob Gruen one you mention above?
Either way it was a really touching scene when Killer comes back to play that gig in London

No, this one... Contains some lovely scenes with little old ladies who worked with him in a Church. Booze and the loss of the band did for the Killer.

Jungle Records have just uploaded this really good interview with Jerry Nolan onto YouTube.
It's in 3 parts/clips - 30+ minutes in total. Edits from this interview were used in the Arena Documentary 'Punk & The Pistols' first shown in 1995...but this is UNEDITED! Jerry's observations about the New York Dolls, Malcolm McClaren, the Pistols and Punk in the UK are fascinating...

Hmmmmm, Dolls on the "other music" rather than "punk" board? I must protest.
