Watch Found Footage of Suicide, The Ramones at Max’s Kansas City

Along with CBGB, Max’s Kansas City was one of the most famed venues of New York City’s 1970s punk era. The nightclub on Park Avenue South featured performances by the Velvet Underground, the Ramones and Iggy Pop and served as a home away from home for Andy Warhol and his circle of artists and musicians. First opened in 1965, Max’s was also the site of Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band and Aerosmith’s first New York City shows, and after closing in ‘74 and reopening in 1975 as Max’s II, the

Bootleg Watch: Elvis Costello Hits the Gas on “This Years Model”

Starting this week, we’re going to be spotlighting our favorite bootlegs of the moment. No, we won’t be linking to them – we don’t want anybody to get sued on our account – but if you’re interested, begin here and here. Elvis Costello and the Attractions Winterland Ballroom, June 7th, 1978 By the time Elvis Costello and the Attractions hit San Francisco for this show in 1978, they had been on the road pretty much nonstop for a solid year and had only just begun to play large rooms such as Bill Graham’s famed Winterland Ballroom. Performing most of This Year’s Model – Costello’s first album with the Attractions, which had hit stores just a few weeks prior – the four-piece bashed away at a frantic pace they haven’t matched since. The songs rush by Ramones-style – there are barely any pauses between them except for Costello screaming out terse intros like, “This one’s called ‘Pump It Up!’.” This must be why all their early press called them a punk band. Highlights include a highly pressurized ‘Watching the Detectives” and a frenzied “Radio Radio,” during which Steve Nieve bangs on his organ with such force that the thing sounds like it’s on the verge of short-circuiting.

The 60-Second Rock Tour: Spots That Inspired Songs in NYC

New York Dolls — New York Doll Hospital This decades-old doll repair shop is often credited as spot that inspirated Arthur “Killer” Kane to name his ‘70s glitter-rock band the New York Dolls. Dolls singer David Johansen disputes this account, explaining that guitarist Syl Silvain came up with the name the Dolls, then Johansen added “New York” to it. “I was thinking how there was New York, and then the rest of the country was like Gommorah,” says Johansen. “The city was so different than now — it was burnt out, full of boarded-up buildings and had this post-apocalyptic vibe. It was like love among the ruins — that’s the kind of name I was going for.” Nonetheless, people all over the world still send their dolls to get repaired at the Doll Hospital. “I never lost a patient,” boasts proprietor Irving Chase. One recent customer was Bruce Springsteen, who had his favorite childhood teddy bear repaired so he could give it to his son. The Ramones — “53rd & 3rd” On the Ramones first album, Dee Dee sings about hustling on this street corner, an infamous gay prostitute zone in the early 1970s. Joey Ramone’s brother, Mickey Leigh, recalled seeing him there in punk oral history Please Kill Me: “He had a black leather motorcycle jacket on, the one he would later wear on the first album cover … I was kinda shocked to see someone I knew standing there, like, “Holy shit. That’s Doug standing there. He’s really doing it.” Dee Dee also claims the song is about him, and not a Green Beret as is often said. “The song ‘53rd & 3rd’ speaks for itself,” he once said. “Everything I write is autobiographical and very real. I can’t write any other way.” The corner now houses the Lipstick Building, named for obvious reasons. Velvet Underground — Lexington and 125th Street This is the infamous street corner Lou Reed sang about scoring heroin on the 1967 Velvet Underground classic “I’m

Fricke’s Picks: The Undertones’ Pop Kicks

“Teenage Kicks” — the opening track on the 1978 debut EP, Teenage Kicks, by the Northern Ireland quintet the Undertones — is perfection. There is no other word for its two and a half minutes of balled-fist fuzz chords and raging-hormone emergency, written with telegram concision by guitarist John O’Neill and delivered with bleating-ram vigor by singer Feargal Sharkey. And that was just the beginning. Until the original lineup split in 1983, the Undertones made the best girls-and-fast-noise pop outside of the first four Ramones LPs, over their own four albums and a dozen-plus singles. An Anthology (Salvo) is a dry name for two CDs of such front-to-back joy. The first disc is a great hello to newcomers: 29 U.K. hits and choice album-and-B-side cuts sequenced out of chronological order but in weird, delightful mood swings, like the midpoint segue from the bratty zoom of “There Goes Norman” into the acid-pop flashes of “The Love Parade,” the plaintive jangle of “When Saturday Comes” and the supersugar rush “Mars Bars.” The second disc is more fun in rougher form: live tracks and demos by a band that was always within arm’s reach of punk-pop perfection.

Meet Vivian Girls, three Jersey lady rockers whose Brooklyn-based band churns out blasts of blistering surf-punk. The trio took their name from The Story of the Vivian Girls, in What is Known as the Realms of the Unreal, of the Glandeco-Angelinnian War Storm, Caused by the Child Slave Rebellion (a book they haven’t read) and boast personal monikers lifted from the Ramones and kickball teams. “We’re trying to write songs that are longer than two minutes,” guitarist-singer Cassie Ramone tells Rolling Stone. “We’re aiming for two-and-a-half minute songs.” Wondering why they love Burt Bacharach?

Rewind: The Week in Rock Daily

It was a wild week for one Miss Britney Spears: First a choreographer leaked word that her Video Music Awards performance is a go, then her first new single dropped, she had custody woes and that dress she wiped her chicken-greased fingers on went up for auction. New York City and punk fans lost a hero as CBGB founder Hilly Kristal died after a battle with lung cancer; Patti Smith, Debbie Harry and others remembered him, and Rock Daily ran a photo gallery of the Ramones, Talking Heads and more bands onstage at his legendary club. U2 collaborator Daniel Lanois told us that the band’s next album is progressing well, and that he and producer Brian Eno have been invited to write with the band this time around. Bruce Springsteen announced a fall tour to support his forthcoming album Magic. Bonus: Amazon will debut the video for “Radio Nowhere” on Tuesday, September 4th. We showed off some nice photos of Smashing Pumpkins, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Fall Out Boy and more big names rocking the U.K.’s Reading and Leeds festivals.
