<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Drawn from interviews conducted by director Danny Garcia for his acclaimed documentary LOOKING FOR JOHNNY, this oral biography of the legendary Johnny Thunders includes first-hand recollections from those who knew Johnny best, from his fellow New York Dolls, Heartbreakers, and Oddballs to his friends, fellow musicians, and loved ones. Johnny Thunders lives again through the reminiscences of Sylvain Sylvain, Walter Lure, Leee Black Childers, Billy Rath, Marty Thau, Lenny Kaye, Peter Perrett, Bob Gruen, Richard Lloyd, and many others. "The stories and anecdotes contained in this book are a strike against mortality, and a lasting testament to the inimitable spirit of Mr. Johnny Thunders, and stand as a worthy companion to the documentary." -Nina Antonia (author of JOHNNY THUNDERS...IN COLD BLOOD and TOO MUCH TOO SOON: THE NEW YORK DOLLS)<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Danny Garcia started his career writing for Spanish music magazines in the 1990s and has contributed to a number of publications, including the notorious magazine HIGH TIMES.
