- New York Dolls- Jet Boy 🧨♟
Thought I would pay tribute to Johnny Thunders on this anniversary of his passing. Johnny had a big influence on me since middle school. When I was having a dark day I could turn to “You Can’t Put Your Arms Around a Memory” and I could find solace in it. His guitar playing was fierce, primal and unleashed. When he had an acoustic, he was sentimental. When he had his Junior, he blazed in all red at Musikladen. He played tales of New York junkheads looking for a kiss and flying oh so high with Eddie Cochran licks being the backbone. He’s deeply missed by those who love rock n’ roll to this day. RIP Jet Boy. - Hudba
Some badly needed ole school Rock & Roll here in 2024! The early 70's "Glam Era" really did rock using Chuck Berry riffs to pave the way!
Glad you enjoyed it! Chuck still paves the way today!
@@DevinRyanVitek absolutely. 🎸😎
Love this tribute to the NYDs and Johnny Thunders! We need to bring this kind of music back!
I so agree, thanks for watching and commenting! Rock on!
And Sylvain
..and he's got the pout to boot!🙂
The Thunder would be proud! \m/
Thank you so much!! That means a lot!
@@DevinRyanVitek Cheers Dev!
Wow!This boy really ROXXXXX
Thank you!! Can’t kill rock n roll!
Nice job. Good sneer at the end. Loved Thunders.Lived in NYC in my younger days. Must have seen him play at least 50 times. It was always an adventure. Glad you're keeping the torch alive. LAMF
Thank you very much! Johnny is a huge influence on me. I’m grateful to have found his music and legacy. He was a true rock n roller. Thanks for listening!
love the energy you put into this cover! beautiful gibson, thumb up \m/
Thank you very much!!
@@DevinRyanVitek you're welcome mate, i sub to stay tuned :D
@@DevinRyanVitek i wish to see you between my subs as well :D
NICE TRIBUTE TO JOHNNY AND A GREAT BAND
Thank you very much! And totally, I love the Dolls!
Great Job, you got JT's hair moves down too. No matter what I do I can't make the D to G sound right.
Thank you! A trick I do for this song is I mute the E and B strings in the G with my fingers.
That way only the D and G ring open like a double stop. It sounds more like the way JT played it. Hope it helps!
Sylvain would aprove! I was a rocker when this first came out, and you've got the 'tude down perfect LOL
Thank you so much James! It's so sad Sylvain passed away. His book is amazing. The true heart of the Dolls.
I’ve always heard of the Dolls, but never really listened to their music till lately. What a mistake!! 😂. Great video
Thanks for the comment Rob! You're in for a great listening experience. The Dolls are one of my biggest influences. Rock on!
YO everyone listen to the end! Just like a live show !🎸⚡️
Love your Cover man!! Well Done!!
Thank you very much!
Great job!
Thank you!
ass kiickin' great tune even young people are into THE DOLLS now.
and yoou nailed the guitar tone and evry nuance dead nuts great vid!
Thank you! The Dolls are one of my all time favorite bands. I’m glad you enjoyed the details I tried to throw in there! Johnny is one of my favorites. He had a very unique, aggressive way of playing versus Syl’s refined licks.
@@DevinRyanVitek and u even have the right guitar! i'm 53 but even i was only a kid when they were around. how did a younger person like you discover them? they're bigger now than when they were together. and where rare you located?Electr1cgypsy

@@NoirL.A. In middle school I obsessed over punk rock and decided to research all about it. Hardcore, post-punk and proto-punk was all interesting to me. So early on I found bands I loved and heard the message they taught me. The message was really that I could achieve anything I want as long as I have myself. So I just went with the music and found the Dolls, MC5 etc. I loved the Dolls because they were raw and had a great T.Rex sensibility about them. The music was very accessible to me as a beginner guitar player as well. As much as I love other genres, the punk thing will never leave me!
@@DevinRyanVitek despite how much propaganda you mite get to be into rap/hip hop/r&b/taylor swift/mylie cyrus etc. you knew good music when you heard it esp. since it was made without having publicity, celeb culture and mtv as a crutch (the music is def. secondary these days). thanx to internet alot of the undeground rock/punk bands are bigger now than when they were together. as when i was young older generations are always underestimating youth it really is ridiculous. fer people like us despite the age gap we know a gourmet lasagna from cotton candy no matter how much money and propaganda they throw at us. where u located? i'm in L.A.
@@NoirL.A. Haha exactly, lasagna from cotton candy! I’m in GA.
🤟✊
Rock on Antonio!
@@DevinRyanVitek 64 years! New Wave, Punk Rock still in my Heart!✊
Man that's a nice guitar. I don't like Gibsons all that much and especially the expensive Les Pauls, but man these so-called cheaper models that are or were used by guys like Bill Steer and Johnny Thunders.... I know I need me one of those.
Thank you! I so agree, Juniors and Specials are some of the best Gibson guitars. I went to the Gibson Garage with my dad in Nashville. The best sounding guitars were a black Junior and Olive Special. Cheaper, yes. But in tone? No way. Thunders knew the name of the game. The Dolls made a ginormous impact on me, one I’m grateful for.
We should form a band, I’m struggling to find people with the attitude
Where are you from?
@@DevinRyanVitek England what’s your ig?
Le coges el swing, esa guitarra es blues
Muchas gracias! Me encanta el rock and roll.
@@DevinRyanVitek A ti, por mantener viva la llama del rock and roll, larga vida a Jhonny Thunders, larga vida a los New York Dolls, que de una vez salga el documental de Scorcese
@@willnido Gracias Willni. Johnny Thunders fue un excelente músico.
hmmmm. this is some (quite cute) guy playing guitar in his bedroom. haven't turned the sound up cos it ain't Johnny thunders and my missus is snoring so I wouldn't here it anyway. point is, who wants to be Johnny thunders. brilliant, cute, dead. try something else. meanwhile I will listen to the heartbreakers.
I did a cover of the Heartbreaker's "I Wanna Be Loved" you can watch here: czcams.com/video/Md9PAUikmKM/video.htmlsi=bp4ODgF-vh0BMbWC it's the Demolition 23 version.
You look like David Gilmores child
Thank you!! Gilmour is one talented man!!
