It is 1998 and after 10 years, a Doll has risen back into today's music world. Sylvain Sylvain's latest effort, "Sleep Baby Doll", on Fishhead Records, is a story of Syl's life with the dolls past and present. "Sleep Baby Doll" contains all new Sylvain material featuring special guest appearances by members of Low Pop Suicide, The Misfits, Blondie, Generation X, The Fuzztones, and many more. Songs such as "Paper, Pencil, and Glue", "I'm Your Man", and "Hungry Girls" are sure bets to capture the attention of today's music listener. It also contains a brand new version of the New York Dolls classic anthem, "Trash". The record is classic Sylvain featuring his signature guitar work, song writing, and his uncanny ability to write a catchy tune people can dance along with. "Sleep Baby Doll" is his most introspective and challenging record to date. "Everyone's going to be really surprised...I think people are gonna say, 'Wow, why didn't this guy make more records?'" explains Sylvain about his new material. "The most honest thing is when that kid goes into the store with his dollar and says, "Hey, here's my buck. Gimme' that record, because I love it.". So begins a new era for this legendary singer/songwriter/guitar hero. Armed with his best record ever, it shouldn't be a surprise to anyone, in the years to come that Sylvain has influenced yet another generation of recording artists. The following performers contributed to "Sleep Baby Doll": John Carlucci: From Queens, NY, he now resides in Los Angeles. Like Johnny, Syl, and Billy, he attended Newtown High School. He has played, recorded, and toured with the Fuzztones, The Speedies, The Jaymen, and the Loose Cannons. Frankie Infante: Former guitarist of Blondie. Brian Keats: From NYC and now reside in Los Angeles. He has played, recorded, and toured with numerous bands like 3 Day Wheely, Susanna Hoffs, Wink, Low Pop Suicide, The Jaymen, Baron Jive, Princess Pang, The Misfits, Genocide, and The Skulls. Michael Lockwood: Michael can be heard playing guitar on the new Aimee Mann record. He is currently touring with Fiona Apple. Other credits include stints with Susanna Hoffs, Wink, and Lions & Ghosts (which had 2 records on EMI). Bob 'Derwood' Andrews: Former guitarist of Generation X and can currently be heard in his new band Moondogg. Paul WallFisch: He has co-produced and recorded with Love & Rockets, Baron Jive and now plays with Firewater, Congo Norvell, and as a solo performer. Casey Dolan: Recorded and toured with 3 Day Wheely, Mark Davis, and The Satellites. Producer credits include work with Richard Thompson and members of The Bangles, Red Hot Chili Peppers. Dave Bassett: Recorded and toured with 3 Day Wheely, Susanna Hoffs, Sam Phillips. Producing credits include Pinching Judy, the Silos, 3 Day Wheely, and The Devics. Rudi Protrudi: Founding member of The Fuzztones, the Jaymen, and Tina Peel. Mike Wilcox and Joe Berliner: Both currently can be heard playing for LA blues band, The Loose Cannons

I don't have "Actress : Birth of the New York Dolls" ...
I never heard this one ... a friend told me that the sound was raw & rough ...

Hi MR,
Actress: Birth Of The Dolls was a CD of a ’71 rehearsal of an early version of the Dolls with Thunders and Rick Rivets. A couple of the tracks appear on the Dolls compilation Manhattan Mayhem. It’s impossible to find these days.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

I saw the new york dolls couple of years ago and although me and my mates both agreed that dolls without johnny thunders is like soup without a salt or car without a wheels, syl's enthusiasm is what keeps em going. He jumps around onstage like he's back in 70's and he really enjoys playing old dolls classics like it is his first time.
I really dig all of his post dolls bands and projects and if Johnny was utter coolness with filthy riffs, Nigs a crashing drummer, Dave a great singer with trashy wit, and Arhur ... heheh a beautiful sculpture, syl was a poppier side of the dolls but as important as all of the others and that's why New York Dolls will always be the best RNR band ever ;)
Thanx once again for this share
