Incredibly enough this band's last album of original material was released in 1974! 32 years later it was time again and it features old New York Dolls rockers David Johansen and Sylvain Sylvain but 3 original members had died prior to this albums release. Johnny Thunders died already in 1991, Jerry Nolan in 1992 and Arthur Kane in 2004. The bonus track Seventeen features bluesmusician Bo Diddley (1928-2008) and Michael Stipe from R.E.M and Iggy Pop make vocalappearences. The album recieved good reviews and reached nr. 129 on the US Billboard list and nr. 3 on the Finnish charts. The music is positive, enercig, alive and punky rock'n'roll with great old man's deep vocals but it also features calmer melodic songs and there's a good quality all through. An album to enjoy and get happy to!

Bassist Sami Yaffa from Finland has played with Hanoi Rocks and Michael Monroe.
