	CANOE -- JAM! Music - Pop Encyclopedia - Quinton, David
		Stiv Bators was tragically killed in France after being hit by a car in 1990.

	In Music We Trust - Stiv Bators: L.A. Confidential
		The name Stiv Bators is legendary in Punk circles -- amazing when you think of how short-lived his original outfit, the Dead Boys, was back in the day or the fact his solo career wasn't exactly littered with gold records and glamour.
		Bators was as famous for his onstage antics as his offstage pranks - as we discover from reading the thoughtfully penned and thorough cover booklet accompaniment to "L.A. Confidential," Bomp's latest entry into the untold and still unfolding story of the freakish frontman, forever the child star that never was.
		Rather, Bators returned to the "roots" of the matter chugging back a decade and a half and exploring the unheralded Garage Punk styles of the '60s with a classic Rock edge.

	Stiv bio
		Stiv Bators and his friends, guitarist Jimmy Zero and bassist Jeff Magnum, were looking for musicians in Cleveland, Ohio in 1975.
		Stiv's main reason for moving to L.A. was to get rid off his image as the Dead Boys front man. He wanted to be respected as a singer and musician and he had a strong vision of the music he wanted to make next.
		Stiv had hurt his back very badly in Spain by jumping off the stage and was resting at his home in France.

	Stiv Bators - Disconnected (2004 reissue w/ bonus trax)
		Stiv Bators, of course, was the lead singer of The Dead Boys, one of the fiercest o fpunk bands in the late 70`s, but Stiv was a softie, a true power popper at heart.
		"3 stars...Originally released in 1980, Stiv Bators` first solo album was re-released in `93 by Bomp, which added eight extra tracks not available on the original version (all recorded live at the Berkeley Square in May of 1980).
		Liners on both feature memories from Stiv sidemand and close friend Frank Secich, who Not Lamers will recognize as being one of the main songwriters in Blue Ash----his writing talents are all over these two reissues.

	Punk Rock Profiles
		Stiv always forgave absolutely everybody - we were on speaking terms with the Lords before the accident.
		When I met Stiv he was really fucked up and unreliable, there was stuff with his divorce, stuff with the band that didn't go right, he was just generally unhappy.
		Stiv had to rest and we were in France.

	VH1.com : Stiv Bators : Biography
		As the frontman for the Dead Boys, Stiv Bators terrorized audiences with his snotty, in-your-face punk
		But after the Dead Boys, Bators embarked on a musical journey that saw him touch upon new wave (the Wanderers), goth rock (the Lords of the New Church), and power pop (during a brief solo career), as well as a fling with movie acting.
		Sensing that there was little chance of launching a successful music career in Ohio, Bators convinced a handful of fellow local musicians (Chrome, guitarist Jimmy Zero, and drummer Johnny Blitz) to relocate to New York City in 1976, resulting in the formation of the Dead Boys.

	Stiv Bators "L.A.L.A." reviews
		The late Stiv Bators' brief career as a power pop artist occurred circa 1979/80, between the demise of the Dead Boys and the formation of the Wanderers (and subsequently the Lords of the New Church).
		After the punk Dead Boys had died and before the Lords of the New Church were ordained, underrated (and now deceased) vocalist Stiv Bators tried to launch a solo career based on his love for classic pop rock.
		Bators' pop phase, accomplished in partnership with former Blue Ash guitarist Frank Secich, was originally documented on one album,

	LEFT OFF THE DIAL - Album Reviews - Stiv Bators: Disconnected
		From the still hot coals of the crumbling punk ruins, Stiv Bators steps out disconnected, disjointed from the destruction and rotting foundation of a floundering music mecca to find a way to keep his agitation alive and psychotically well.
		Bators was the man who destroyed Rocket from the Tombs, from which he hijacked half the members to found one of the most influential American punk bands to have existed, The Dead Boys.
		Stiv has turned in his broken teeth for a more power pop oriented solo career.

	stiv
		Stiv always had a great (big) ear for a cover and here 'Have Love Will Travel' is given the Stiv as wily old rougue character, splendidly smoking jacketed host of a loose limbed penthouse party make-over.
		No different stylistically to the 'Disconnected' stuff, this is Stiv having a whale of a time before the darker Lords of the New Church era, having the full backing of, but still testing to the limits, a supportive, almost indulgent label, and good on 'em.
		This is the companion piece to Stiv's classic set of surf pop spiky heeled garage stompers 'Disconnected', also in re-issue form.

	CREEM ONLINE: Stiv Bators — Disconnected
		Stiv's power as a frontman and the muscle of Cheetah Chrome, Johnny Blitz and Jimmy Zero as a band are as obvious as the bologna safety-pinned to Stiv's shirt.
		Most punk rock moment: when Stiv yanks a piece of said bologna from its safety pin, blows his nose in it, and chows it down.
		Bators' first solo album, Disconnected was recorded in Los Angeles following the breakup of the Dead Boys.

		Stiv brought Cynthia to the United States in 1978 for a vacation -- they were in LA part of that time, and Stiv introduced Cynthia, his fiancee at the time, to his regular whirlwind LA hot spots and brought me and my camera along as well.

	Stiv Bators "Disconnected" reviews
		Stiv Bators was the bad-boy frontman for the Dead Boys and later sang in the Wanderers and Lords of the New Church, but in between stints, he put out a 1980 solo album,
		Now Stiv was at a loss as to how to follow up history's first successful mix and match of Iggy, Alice Cooper, sick guitar, and the Three Stooges.
		In any event, here's the late, great Stiv's post-Dead Boys, pre-Lords solo effort now on CD w/sweet liner notes and 8 bonus live cuts.

	Stiv Bators & the Dead Boys
		The Bomp catalog contains two Stiv Bators CDs, 'Disconnected' and 'L.A., L.A.' (soon out of print), containing all the work he did with us from 1980 to 1987.
		When Stiv cut himself open with a broken bottle and had to be rushed to hospital in the middle of his set (but made it back in time for the second show) he wasn't doing anything Iggy hadn't done before, and with less premeditation.
		There is also the live Dead Boys album, Night of the Living Dead Boys, recorded at CBGB by Sire but never finished until Stiv brought it to us.

	clevescene.com News Dead Boys Live
		It's a curious chronological occurrence that this weekend's Stiv Bators tribute and Dead Boys reunion events at the Beachland and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame should happen mere months after Rocket From the Tombs' own improbable reunion.
		The best '70s punks were the nutjobs who could be as easily reviled as loved, and Stiv Bators was the nuttiest of them all.
		It's getting easier by the year to argue that Bators and the sonic extension of his shwantz, the Dead Boys, were the blueprint for what's currently considered punk rock.

		In June 1990, Bators was struck by a car in Paris, returned home and died of his injuries the next day.
		In 1987, Bators released a 12-inch ("Have Love Will Travel" b/w a sharp swipe at the Moody Blues' "Story in Your Eyes") on Bomp!, with musical assistance from various co-conspirators.
		Playing down his outrageous side, Bators' first solo record maintains an Iggy-like persona while replacing chaotic garage-punk with thoughtful music that owes power pop a sizable debt.

		The Lords of the New Church were the first punk "supergroup," featuring Stiv Bators of The Dead Boys on vocals and Brian James from The Damned on guitar.
		Fast forward a decade, and with Stiv safely gone (he died in 1990 in Paris), James and original bassist Dave Tregunna have decided the time is right to try and coax some old punks into buying this limp piece of business.
		The original band was a snarling, angry hornet that combined punk fury with Bator's singular wit.
