  • @firstcat Yea ,your so right about Johnny's playing philosophy,thats what inpired so many of us young punks to make the scene only knowing "three chords" ,that whole event ,momentum thing ,all that energy and bad attitude gave us hope without false asperations , never heard this track before tho ,l think its great ,loved hearing it ,l remember seein Debbie join Johnny on stage once at a great ol punk dico in NYC called " Heat " once ,oh say maybe in 78 ,or somewhere around then ...

  • ooo, debbie, marc and jonny i'm in heaven, lol

  • Parts of this show have been officially released on Picture This Live (1998) and Blondie Live - Philadelphia 1978/Dallas 1980 (1999), but neither with JT. The next song was Jet Boy, and JT played on that one, too.  Thanks for this!

  • That cocaine addict's guitar playing sucks.

  • well...this is fucking cool.

  • DEBBIE with JOHNNY in a MARC BOLAN 'S T.REX cover. PUNK goes GLAM dudes...

  • alrite gotta CHIME in here. Yes techniquely johnny emerged with his talent fully formed and it was bett!er playing in alot of ways techniquely BUT! the sound got thicker surlier and (even) more evocitive as the years waned. BELFAST NITES! so your totally wrong suker

  • Johnny Thunders applied himself to guitar in the Dolls, under the tutelage of Sylvain. Before the Dolls, Johnny played bass. After the heroin took hold, JT stopped practicing guitar in general. He would say in interviews that his philosophy was that musicians should not be competitive, and that's why he doesn't practice, but really, he had changed priorities. What impressed me about his guitar playing was how far he could stretch a 10 riff repertoire so far.

  • Amazing fucking performance; great fucking cover; best version of anything ever

  • Agree Flipper...!! But he´s best performance ever was in Amsterdam - i was there.. Checked it out on youtube (sad vacation is super!!)...

    Rip JT - we miss you..
