  1. David Johansen: Here Comes the Night (Blue Sky FZ 36589, 1981)

    Back to alpha order after the brief diversion for RSD. Found this in the dollar bin and it’s a little weird that this is his only solo album I have on #vinyl, but I couldn’t pass it up. Features Blondie Chaplin on guitar/vocals and the Modern Lovers’ Ernie Brooks on bass. Not quite as 1981 as you might expect.

  8. I was traveling last week and only just heard today that David Johansen died. I don't generally like to go around eulogizing geriatric rock stars, but damn, this feels like kind of a loss.

    The New York Dolls were in their prime around the time I was in the womb, but they were still local heroes in NYC even when I was a teenager (it's absurd how many Johnny Thunders wannabes you could find roaming St. Marks Place on a Friday night ca. 1994 -- well after the rest of the world had moved on from big hair).

    Also, I'm not sure when cross-dressing was legalized in NYC, but if it was before the Dolls started, it wasn't long before, and they still deserve credit for jumping in head-first (in platforms!), if you ask me.

    Anyways, RIP, y'old dog. Hope it wasn't too painful.

  9. David Johansen died at the weekend at the age of 75, meaning all founding members of The New York Dolls are now gone. The band never had a top 100 hit, but @RollingStone's critic Robert Christgau says they still changed the world. Here's his story of the band, from the first gig he attended in 1972 to the 2005 album, "Some Day It Will Please Us to Remember Even This."

  10. I was a punk rocker and a big fan of David Johansen and the New York Dolls. Fun Fact: My mom dated a very buttoned-up Republican type who was a huge Buster Poindexter fan and had *no idea* about David Johansen. #davidjohansen #busterpoindexter

  11. David Johansen, this world was a bit more interesting with you in it. It's very small comfort today indeed that you won't have to experience this American totalitarian state any longer. #DavidJohansen #Music

  13. David Johansen, who fronted the legendary 1970s proto-punk band New York Dolls and also recorded under the pseudonym Buster Poindexter, has died at 75, his representative confirmed. Johansen was the subject of a documentary from directors Martin Scorsese and David Tedeschi, “Personality Crisis: One Night Only.”

    “I’ve known David Johansen for decades, and his music has been a touchstone ever since I listened to the Dolls when I was making 'Mean Streets,'” Scorsese said when he announced the film. “Then and now, David’s music captures the energy and excitement of New York City.” Read more @pitchfork:

  16. Fun fact: As a twelve year old, my parents decided for some reason to have us see #DavidJohansen as Buster Poindexter. Near the start of the show, he gave my mother a rose.

  23. This was fun to listen to!
    “A lot of folks are asking to hear some original Jonesy's Jukebox shows from Indie 103.1 days, and here is a special one for you. This is the day #Siouxsie Sioux and Budgie (from the Banshees) came in for the first part of the show, and overlapped with The #NewYorkDolls in the second part! It happened on January 10, 2004, at a time when both artists were passing through town on tours. You know they covered some juicy tidbits from the early days. Enjoy this previously unreleased episode capturing the convergence of these dynamic performers: #SiouxsieSioux , #Budgie , #DavidJohansen ,
    #SylvainSylvain, and of course Steve Jones.”
