New York Dolls recording new album

Fixed.

It might not be bad. They've been doing a lot of shows so maybe they found out their groove or something. It could be the best comeback ever.

I had briefly considered writing a couple.

This is lousy news.

KJ-52, do you think the New York Dolls recording a new album is lousy????

"YES I DO. IT WILL NEVER BE 'TOO MUCH TOO SOON', YOU KNOW?"

Ok. Thanks, KJ-52.

Somebody had to say it.

Maybe to the classic ILM demographic, yeah. To everyone else who liked
classic rock, not at all.

1,000,000 times better than Foghat

Go back and listen to that big "prog" band, Blue Oyster Cult, and their most "proggy" of albums, "On Your Feet Or On Your Knees."

I've seen 'em both within the last year or so. And while the Foghat show was a fun night out, the Dolls were a revelation. I'm guardedly optimistic about the new Dolls album. At the least, it could turn out to be a very good Johansen album. Which is not a bad thing.

New York Dolls - Cause I Sez So

the only band that matters

was the last new one any good? i seem to remember hearing that it surprisingly was.

i like them all. the newer ones sound like what they are -- a bunch of adults having a blast. not everyone's cup of tea, but also kind of miraculous.

I felt like the more recent one was a bit of a letdown after the first reunion album, but I liked it enough - as Freud says, very fun.

they are being a little cagy about who is in the band at this point. i think most of the newer members were out on the road with michael monroe when this latest album was recorded. frank infante and jason hill filled in. i'm intrigued by the snippets from that link. the songs sound more playful. maybe syl & david jo felt liberated.

yeah, just going by the samples, there seem to have been a lot fewer heavy/loud guitar parts used on this one, too--sounds more girl-group-y than anything to me really.

five years later and i think they're incapable of making a "bad" record ('cause i said so's got one (1) weak trak, imo,)

Bit of a long shot, I think, but...

Does anyone want to see the New York Dolls in London tonight? I have a ticket but I can't go. I could email it to the lucky winner. It has my name on it, but I don't suppose this matters. The concert supposedly takes place in some disused tunnel underneath Waterloo Station. Small venue. £35 face value. EARL SLICK is on guitar.

The Dolls supporting Poison in the states is just so...
