Hi -

Last song, side 1, of the NY Dolls' 1st album.  In my memory to this day from several hundred listens during my high school years.

And yes, Edgar Winters had a song by the same title ...

Much different songs.  Edgar's was an instrumental.

I was today years old when I learned that Buster Poindexter and David Johansen were one and the same person.

RIP 

I booked Buster Poindexter at Roxy, Boston in '89... put on an amazing show with full orchestra. Stayed really late and partied with the staff after-hours; a very cool guy indeed.

I was watching a blues special featuring several veterans when David came out and did a killer cover of Howlin Wolf's "Killing Floor".  You might be able to find it on You Tube.  Worth your while.
