David Johansen - Funky But Chic + [1993]
Музыка
[Stereo] Live performance of a great track from his early solo career, post-New York Dolls, on USTV. The interview after the song is incomplete, as my tape ran out.....
Backed by the house band, and a few others. The guitarist, Jimmy Vivino, packs a lot into this tune before it is over with.

I love his voici since New York Dolls
I watch this every morning. It makes the day easier to face!
Thank you David, I seen you at Tramps with Kenny Haefner. I was a sailor in the Navy. We were from Jersey. You had an awesome aura. You were so kind and Ill never forget it.

It's old, it's cool, and still way better than the crap that's on today.
The album this is from was NOT a radio hit but a gem that still stands tall. Great version here, these people a having fun!
legendary tune one of a kind..i got a pair of shoes i swear that somebody gave me
Absolute brilliance.
I saw him do this song live at The Whiskey a go go. in LA, in 1977. I've been a fan ever since. Later in the 80's we used to hang at the same after hours bar on Irving Pl, in NYC.

Bonjour.... Seriez-vous assez aimable pour me donner les titres des albums de Mr.Johansen ? Merci d'avance.
This is really good, the best version of the song I've seen
Shredding that les paul.🎸👍
A real gem of a performance.
Great post! Awesome how he used the Conan band, Max Weinberg and the Max Weinberg Seven (Now... Jimmy Vivino and the Basic Cable Band)!
Max Weinberg is drumming for David Johansen. I hope Tony Machine didn't mind. 😀 The lead guitar is killer.

Great frontman
I must have viewed this clip over 100 times - I love it. I don't know much about the Conan band at this time - did it have all those guys? Whatever was the case, this band swings so much and is so tight it's unbelievable.

There's a version of the Dolls on their last legs doing this song. It's actually quite good. It takes 3 backup singers to pull off sylvains backing vocals.

What a dude!!!!!!
Wish there was a David Johansen live album with the Conan o brein band haha not necessarily this band but similar setup, mr. Johansen really thrives on live shows/improvs, I really admire David Johansen for taking risks with his career some hit and miss (buster) but he has a killer one of a kind voice and he explored that takes balls not like some has been artist that just dwell in their past fame, glad hes down to gift us his awesome voice no matter what genre
Awesome!!!! LUV It!!!
thanks for sharing... THIS ROCKS
great post. not much live material from this album available.
Good enough for a small wedding or business conference.
THANK YOU FOR THIS!!!!

@Crimson Wolf not all thunders work was heroin chic or dumb. Have you actually listened to all his work. All his solo projects. I suggest listen to his so alone album from 1979 and he did some other work like his copy cats album he was a hard drug user but he was also a human being with issues that were never addressed. Sylvain sylvain wasn't a heroin or a drug user really at all, neither was author kane a heroin user. Just jerry and Johnny went on the dope train. Still they made great music and Jerry Nolan was a fantastic drummer he had the chops like gene krupa he may have been taught by him if not mistaken or someone great.

@@matthewjdouglas6471 I bought my UK import copy of "So Alone" back when it was first released. Same for my "Heartbreakers" LP. Saw the NY Dolls two nights in Houston TX (Liberty Hall). Followed the careers of all of the Dolls. It is things like "Chinese Rocks" (a solo Thunders staple) and proudly having a syringe publicly displayed in his hat or lapel that soured me on Thunders. How many kids were influenced & destroyed by that type of moronic crap? Heroin hates you.
