Description
New York Dolls is the debut album by the American hard rock band New York Dolls. It was released on July 27, 1973, by Mercury Records. In the years leading up to the album, the Dolls had developed a local fanbase by playing regularly in lower Manhattan after forming in 1971. However, most music producers and record companies were reluctant to work with them because of their vulgarity and onstage fashion as well as homophobia in New York; the group later appeared in exaggerated drag on the album cover for shock value.

Definitely a seminal LP for hard rock music. The Dolls captured a time and place, were either ignored or derided as weirdos from New York, and made a timeless album for endless future generations to enjoy. Not much else needs to be said.
