In 1973, Todd Rundgren scooped The New York Dolls out of a Bowery slumgutter and into the Record Plant Recording Studio to create the band's legendary debut album — now, 36 years later, he's doing it again, only this time the phrase "peeling off a plastic-covered La-Z-Boy in Sarasota" might better apply. This time around, two remaining Dolls David Johansen and Sylvain Sylvain (bassist Arthur Ka...

THE NEW YORK DOLLSCause I Sez So (2009)A few tracks, like the title tune, carry on in the Dolls' gloriously trashy tradition, though, as you can clearly hear, producer Todd Rundgren gives the sonics a 90s rock band sheen. Understandable when it comes to reaching radio, but still a shock to the system when it comes to what one expects, or more accurately wants, from the New York Dolls. Still, th...

A punk rock coffee table book sounds like an oxymoron; one of the most dangerous, confrontational, aggressive genres of music being something to look over with tea from your friends at church? If Bob Gruen's New York Dolls Photographs is on any coffee tables, some would say, it should be next to tea laced with PCP or with syringes and broken, bloodied guitar strings in place of crumpets and toa...

Not much of a writer here, but was so blown away at how good the Dolls played last nite in Boston I had to share. I would highly recommend to anyone who even remotely enjoys their music to check them out on their latest tour. I don't remember the exact order of the setlist, but they opened with Puss N Boots, Human Being and closed with Personality Crisis. They played all but 2 off of the first ...

Most of this CD does not perhaps sound as you would expect the Dolls to sound, but that don't make it bad.I like this bluesy tune. It sounds like it's being sung by Tom Waits, and has a swampy almost Bo Diddley beat, but played the way John Fogerty would play it.If that isn't a strange description, I don't know what is. But me not being real familiar with the old Dolls sound, that's what it fir...

This was sort of exciting…I got asked to write a bigger longer show preview for Philadelphia Weekly last week, on the New York Dolls show. Here it is:Too Much Too Late Rock critic Richard Meltzer never wrote anything funnier than his account of a mid-’70s food fight with the New York Dolls, David Johansen and Meltzer flinging handfuls of macaroni salad at one another at a Mercury party, leathe...
