On my way to work New York Doll's 'Pills' shuffled up on my mobile phone. I really forgot how good this song was. I am not sure if I should call them proto-punks, travesty queens or kings of glam-rock or just the best of all. Anyway, David Johansen and Johnny Thunders was a main influence to the upcoming punk-rock scene. I really love their short and simple songs with them magic riffs. I found this life appearance in German television shortly after the release of their first record.
Enjoy.

And the original Bo Diddley version of "Pills" is pretty cool too https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sWbB_vStX_8.
Great to see this excellent live footage for a change instead of the usual, half-mimed, OGWT set. Stirring stuff.
