Hello Kids,
The Hollywood Brats where England's New York Dolls, althought they didn't realize they were both working in the same medium at the time. The LP that they recorded in 1973 was never released at the height of their powers and we can only imagine a battle of the bands between the two groups. Band member Casino Steel (probably one of the greatest sobriquets of the era) finally ended up in punk/poppers The Boys, who released a cover of Sick on You on their eponymous first LP in 1977. Proto-punk at its finest.
Enjoy...

Given the lyrics, it is no wonder no label would touch them with a ten foot pole. But I can see why Keith Moon would have been pushing them. Their sound has definitely got the Doll's touch. Like a swift kick below the belt. Thanks for sharing.
How come I don't know these guys? Seriously...
