内容説明
Formed in New York City in 1971, the New York Dolls prefigured Punk, New Wave and Glam Metal Rock with their over-the-top cross-dressing and their shambling, sloppy, but highly energetic playing style, which set the tone for many rock bands that would later come on the scene. Comprised of singer David Johansen (who would reinvent himself as Buster Poindexter in the '80s), legendary guitarist Johnny Thunders, drummer Billy Murcia and bassist Arthur 'Killer' Kane (who was the subject of the acclaimed documentary 'New York Doll'), the Dolls are the acknowledged influence of bands as diverse as Blondie, the Ramones, Aerosmith, Motley Crue, Guns N Roses, Morrissey/The Smiths and the Sex Pistols. While there have been biographies published on the Dolls, this is the first photography collection devoted to their iconic and trail-blazing style.

Finally! A photographic archive of the legendary N.Y. Dolls
2008/10/15
形式:ハードカバー|Amazonが確認した購入
Flash back to 1973-74: I was an impressionable 12 year old rock fan, when I first saw the NEW YORK DOLLS on Don Kirschner's Rock Concert on TV. Immediately I realized that THIS was what Rock & Roll, and particularly Glam Rock was all about. I had just gotten my first electric guitar & was learning how to play. The Dolls' songs were catchy, easy to replicate, and most of all, COOL! Soon I was on my way to replicating the Dolls in any way I could. This book would have helped a lot in those days. There weren't a lot of photos of the Dolls in the magazines back in the day. This book is a treasure trove of rare & amazing shots by legendary rock photog Bob Gruen. I'd recommend it to anyone who has an interest in this legendary band. Much like my well worn vinyl, and CD's, and the awesome DVD Bob release a year ago, this is a "must have" for any fan of David JoHansen, Syl Sylvain, Arthur "Killer" Kane, Jerry Nolan, and Johnny Thunders.

Makes you hungry for more

形式:ハードカバー
In general, I do not get too excited over band photography books. But I am giving this 3 stars for the Dolls' historical significance in the entertainment world. The book makes it obvious to anyone who was not previously aware that the NYD physically influenced many bands that came after them. Also becoming clearer is the doll concept - they really were living dolls, each of them dressed up, with their own aesthetic of the moment, hair and makeup specific to that "doll" alone.
I really cannot judge how complete the book is, but considering that they were together for such a brief period of time, and considering the many looks that are presented here, I will assume that it is at least somewhat complete in its representation of the bands' visual history.
Overall enjoyable, and you kind of don't want it to end! The reader wishes to turn the page and find a new look, and have a new "aha" moment eternally.
There are interviews with the only surviving original members - David Johansen and Sylvain. Quotes by band members and others such as Malcolm McLaren, Stiv Bators, Iggy Pop and The Ramones are peppered throughout the book. Morrissey has the Afterword.
