1	New York Dolls (1973) more music like this by New York Dolls There are hints of girl group pop and more than a hint of the Rolling Stones, but The New York Dolls doesn't really sound like anything that came before it. It's hard rock with a self-conscious wit, a celebration of camp and kitsch that retains a menacing, malevolent edge. The New York Dolls play as if they can barely keep the music from falling ... see all copies from $8.66! new only from $8.66!
2	One Day It Will Please Us to Remember Even This (2006) more music like this by New York Dolls The prospect of a new studio album from the New York Dolls in the year 2006 is a strange and puzzling thing, especially without the presence of Johnny Thunders, Arthur Kane, and Jerry Nolan, all of whom are currently gigging on another astral plane. But after the Dolls made an unexpected and surprisingly convincing return to the concert stage in ... see all copies from $6.02! new only from $16.15!
3	Too Much Too Soon (1974) more music like this by New York Dolls After the clatter of their first album failed to bring them a wide audience, the New York Dolls hired producer Shadow Morton to work on the follow-up, Too Much Too Soon. The differences are apparent right from the start of the ferocious opener, "Babylon." Not only are the guitars cleaner, but the mix is dominated by waves of studio sound effects ... see all copies from $15.00! new only from $15.00!
4	Shaker (2002) more music like this by David Johansen & The Harry Smiths When one looks back at David Johansen's body of work, it's not difficult to get the feeling you're watching an actor who has slipped in and out of a number of character roles over the years; there was the trashy glam punk libertine of his New York Dolls days, the swaggering hard rock belter on his '70s and '80s solo albums, the over-the-top ... see all copies from $16.90! new only from $16.90!
5	Hard Night's Day (2000) more music like this by The New York Dolls see all copies from $14.68! new only from $14.68!
6	Here Comes the Night (1982) more music like this by David Johansen On his first two solo albums, David Johansen sounded like he was trying to walk a fine line between recapturing the glorious chaos of the New York Dolls and creating a sound that better reflected his own individual personality (and might sell a few records in the process). The first half of that equation fell by the wayside while Johansen was ... see all copies from $3.95!
7	In Style (1979) more music like this by David Johansen David Johansen's first solo album was a triumph, a savvy blend of the New York Dolls' swagger and a more conventional but no less idiosyncratic hard rock style that left plenty of room for Johansen's eclectic musical outlook. Unfortunately, it didn't sell, and for his second post-Dolls release Johansen and producer Mick Ronson aimed for something ... see all copies from $6.00!
8	Live It Up (1982) more music like this by David Johansen When David Johansen's initial solo albums failed to click with the mainstream record-buying public, he turned to live performing with a vengeance; Johansen once described his career in the early '80s as "traveling around the country in a Dodge RAM van with about six guys...(on) our typical day, we would get up, travel 400 miles, open for a heavy ... see all copies from $8.00! new only from $11.66!
9	David Johansen & the Harry Smiths (2000) more music like this by David Johansen & the Harry Smiths With this album, David Johansen embarks on what could possibly be the fourth phase of his career. His first three, of course, were his tenure as lead singer of the punk rock group the New York Dolls, a solo career as a mainstream rocker under his own name, and a lengthy stint as his nightclub singer alter-ego Buster Poindexter. Like that last ... see all copies from $7.93! new only from $16.81!
10	Great Big Kiss (2002) more music like this by The New York Dolls The New York Dolls were a band whose pervasive and lasting influence has far outstripped their official recorded output, which amounted to a mere two albums before they called it quits. Not unlike bands with similar career trajectories (such as the Stooges, MC5, the Misfits, and the Sex Pistols), the current New York Dolls catalog is packed with ... see all copies from $5.97! new only from $5.97!
11	Lipstick Killers (Mercer St. Sessions) (1981) more music like this by The New York Dolls Originally released on cassette only in 1981 and updated for the digital age nearly 20 years later, this nine-track set of the Dolls' 1972 Mercer Street sessions was recorded before either of their studio albums -- and the rawness shows. The thin, bootleg-quality sound doesn't help matters, but the band was still working around its sound and each ... see all copies from $8.94! new only from $8.94!
12 view cover	The David Johansen Group Live (2004) more music like this by The David Johansen Group Nine tracks from this July 21, 1978, concert at New York's Bottom Line were released as a promotional LP at the time, but this 1993 CD is the first time the entire concert was released. If this had been available commercially at the time, as opposed to 1981's comparatively limp live offering Live It Up, it might have changed the direction of David ... see all copies from $17.77! new only from $17.77!
13 view cover	David Johansen (1978) more music like this by David Johansen David Johansen's self-titled solo debut bears a closer resemblance to his work with the New York Dolls than any of his subsequent recordings, but the former Dolls singer cleverly crafted an album that played to his former band's strengths while establishing an identity of his own and delivering a set of tight but powerful hard rock. Where the ... see all copies from $17.15! new only from $17.15!
14 view cover	Sweet Revenge (1984) more music like this by David Johansen David Johansen's 1982 live album Live It Up gained the former New York Dolls front man some well-deserved radio and MTV airplay for his medley of a trio of hits by the Animals, but it wasn't enough to keep him from being dropped by the CBS-distributed Blue Sky label, and he cut his fifth solo set Sweet Revenge for an independent label. While ... see all copies from $10.00! new only from $13.00!
15 view cover	Return of the New York Dolls: Live From Royal Festival Hall, 2004 (2004) more music like this by New York Dolls Reunion shows by bands with a major creative legacy are always a problematic matter, and when Morrissey persuaded the surviving members of the New York Dolls to play a set at the 2004 Meltdown Festival in London (which he curated), lots of fans wondered aloud if David Johansen, Sylvain Sylvain and Arthur Kane had any real business calling this ... see all copies from $5.10! new only from $10.79!
16 view cover	Just Say New Wave (1996) more music like this by Various Artists One of the more interesting new wave-era compilations, the 1996 budget set Just Say New Wave deserves kudos for what it leaves off (no "Love Plus One"! no "Love My Way"!) as much as for the relative obscurities it highlights. The highlights are a quartet of gems from the roster of San Francisco's estimable 415 Records: Romeo Void's still startling ... see all copies from $2.35!
17	Punky But Chic...The American New Wave (1994) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $1.99! new only from $6.99!
18	Crucial Music: Collection (1990) more music like this by David Johansen see all copies from $3.00!
19 view cover	Rock 'N Roll (1994) more music like this by The New York Dolls Rock 'N Roll contains all of the original material from the New York Dolls' two classic albums and adds a couple of outtakes and rarities. So why isn't it as much fun as New York Dolls or Too Much Too Soon? For starters, the Dolls' versions of "Pills," "Stranded in the Jungle," "Don't Start Me Talkin," and "(There's Gonna Be A) Showdown" weren't ... see all copies from $13.42! new only from $13.42!
20 view cover	Here Comes the Night [Bonus Track] (2007) more music like this by David Johansen On his first two solo albums, David Johansen sounded like he was trying to walk a fine line between recapturing the glorious chaos of the New York Dolls and creating a sound that better reflected his own individual personality (and might sell a few records in the process). The first half of that equation fell by the wayside while Johansen was ... see all copies from $9.22! new only from $9.22!
21 view cover	In Style [Bonus Track] (2007) more music like this by David Johansen Despite the presence of guitarist Mick Ronson, David Johansen's second solo album, In Style, wasn't a collection of blistering glam rock. Instead, Johansen began to expand the boundaries of his music, adding elements of disco, soul, and reggae. Occasionally, the soul inflections work, but the songs are by and large weaker than the ones on his ... see all copies from $9.22! new only from $9.22!
22 view cover	Live at the Fillmore East December 28 & 29, 2007 (2008) more music like this by New York Dolls see all copies from $5.47! new only from $5.47!

24 view cover	Private World (2006) more music like this by New York Dolls Demos of songs that later appeared on the New York Dolls' first two albums have been released numerous times over the years, and under countless different titles. The 2006 model goes by the name of Private World, but this 36-track set improves on all the other previous Dolls demo compilations, as it includes every single demo recording from their ... see all copies from $25.75! new only from $25.75!
