NEW YORK DOLLS - Too Much Too Soon - LP - 180g Vinyl

LP - 180g Virgin Black Vinyl, Remastered Reissued Of The Original 1974 Album

The New York Dolls' first album expanded their cult from Manhattan to the rest of hard-rock America. As a result, Too Much Too Soon is less specifically rooted in Manhattan, though its bluster and swagger are no less urban.

Rather than the distinctly New York City imagery of Subway Train from their debut, this album offers Babylon—a nod to the town on Long Island—the Philadelphia soul of There's Gonna Be a Showdown, and the Chinese accents of Bad Detective.

Too Much Too Soon is plainly about moving a lot and not going anywhere. "All dressed up/Got nowhere to go," sings lead guitarist Johnny Thunders, aching for release.
