Kinda like having the classic Dolls lineup rehearsing in your living room, but without any nasty mess to clean up afterwards.

  • We Say...

    For decades, Dolls fans have been suckered by posthumous releases of dubious legality and worse sound quality, but leave it to Norton to come up with something that truly holds its own with the first two Dolls LPs. This pristinely recorded (and riotously performed) collection of live-in-the-studio demos from 1973 captures New York City’s primordial punk band at their bawdy best, complete with hilarious between-song asides from David Johansen and plenty of thrilling Johnny Thunders-Syl Sylvain guitar collisions. Hearing these unvarnished versions of “Jet Boy,” “Subway Train,” “Looking for a Kiss,” et al. is kinda like having the classic Dolls lineup rehearsing in your living room, but without any nasty mess to clean up afterwards.
