I loved reading an interview with Sylvain Sylvain of the New York Dolls, who was attempting to butter up the Caledonian market with the statement that Scotland was the first place to get the New York Dolls. He also said that Primal Scream are his favourite band. I presume he reads the Sunday Post and has boxes ofÌýTunnoch's Teacakes backstage at every show.Ìý I love the New York Dolls, but don't remember them the first time round. I became aware of their existence in 1976, by which time they had disbanded and were history. Recent history, I now realise, as the disbanded in 1975Ìýbut when you're 17 all history is ancient history. I did go and see them the first time they reformed in 2004 in London, at the behest of Brian Young from Rudi. 'You can't miss that' he said and he was right.
