Description
The New York Dolls were a band that defied easy categorisation, but their music and style can be summed up as a fusion of glam, proto-punk, and hard rock. With their androgynous style, street-smart attitude, and campy humour, they played a key role in ushering in the era of CBGBs and the rise of heroin chic. This is the story of one of rock's greatest bands, told in the band's own authentic voice.
Sylvain Sylvain's memoir takes the reader on a journey through his early life, the rise and fall of the New York Dolls, and the misadventures that lay in between. With his unique perspective, Sylvain shares stories of the band's heyday and its impact on the music world, from Patti Smith to Guns N' Roses.
This is a candid and unflinching look at the life of one of rock's most iconic figures, told in a voice that is both raw and relatable. With its unique blend of music, style, and attitude, Sylvain's story is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in the history of rock music.
