Early 1970’s-NYC-Glam Rock with Eric Emerson-Andy Warhol Superstar on vocals-along with Jay Mala– circa-1970-75-During era of- NY Dolls-Blondie-Ramones–Max’s-CBGB’s-Mercer Arts Center.
The problem with glam/glitter rock (at least in the United States and especially in New York City) was that, for all of the press and accolades it received and all the promise it held for overweight pimple-infested fat tubs o’ lard cloistered in their midwestern bedrooms, NOTHING CAME OUT!!! Other’n the New York Dolls that is, but even considering just how much that group could inspire fellow rockers to heights of spandex greatness on one hand and get them all frothing at the mouth rabid on the other (witness their topping both the “Best” and “Worst” new group categories in the 1973 CREEM reader’s poll) you’d’ve thunk that some enterprising label, even a cheap-o upstart like Paramount, would’ve had the initiative to do a little a&r hunting at the Mercer Arts Center for their own personal Dolls wannabes! But alas, given all the press, hype, attention and promise that the Dolls earned, the big New York Rock Putsch pretty much ended with a fizzle as glam screeched to a halt. And frankly, the same labels that upped their noses at Teenage Lust and Gilded Tramp didn’t do that much better when the same En Why Scene morphed into the mid-seventies decidedly NON-glam era of Television and all those groups that seemed so refreshing especially compared with a lotta the disco and prog rock that was goin’ on at the time but hardly anybody seemed to care anyway.
