  NEW YORK DOLLS NEVER DIE…THANKS TO DVD
The New York Dolls were every girl's dream: men confident enough in their sexuality to play with high heels and make-up, but unmistakably masculine.
But the moments the Dolls were bringing back were the handpicked magical, frivolous daydreams that spoke to Elvis, girl groups, the three-minute single—and that momentary joy of successfully unhooking your girl’s bra in a car just before she slaps your face.
Dolls fans have long had to be content with photos, two albums, about a half-dozen bootlegs (repackaged over the years as thirty differently named bootlegs), and oral histories of those lucky enough to have been there at the time.

 The New York Dolls @ Nostalgia Central
Released in the summer of 73, The New York Dolls was a proto-punk revelation, a way cool schlock of visceral rock and roll which combined the more essential moments of The MC5, The Pretty Things and The Shangri-Las.
The Dolls trashy transvestite attire also borrowed heavily from The Stones circa 1966, although being American they had taken it to almost cartoon-ish proportions.
A pivotal reference point not only for Punk, but also for the US glam metal movement of the mid 80s, The New York Dolls' influence remains hugely disproportionate to their relatively slim legacy.
