Interesting stuff in this thread. I'd always heard of Johnny Thunders, but never actually heard him, thanks for the videos and the biograpohical data, AT.

I wonder if Dylan's "Johnny Thunder" is the same as the New York Dolls' Johnny Thunders. Anybody else heard that song, "I'm Alive"? Mystery....
Slightly different....
