The Johnny Thunders Story with Nina Antonia
Posted in Music | January 20th, 2010
cherryredgroup asked:
Johnny Thunders, ‘In Cold Blood’ is the definitive portrait of the condemned man of rock ‘n’ roll, from the baptism of fire and tragedy that was the New York dolls, through to the junkie punk years of the Heartbreakers and beyond. Author Nina Antonia wrote this book with Thunder’s blessing & illustrated an unflinching account of a unique guitarist whose drug problems often overshadowed his considerable style and talent.

I’m sure she’s a great biographer but God almighty she’s an awful interview. Its like pulling teeth to get anything more than 2 sentences out of her.

I may also add, its a comment page, it does not state anywhere it is a page for grammatical literal sentences. And I realized you meant the book, what the hell did you think..?

And whats so un-constructed about it may I ask, he who still failed to realize a huge spelling mistake in an authors name and who still cant pin point the mistakes mentioned, all I did was ponder it? No idiocy there just curiosity, I wasnt rude either.

This girl is a babe! I love her.Johnny and Perret are two idols of mind,equally as important as Keith and Mick Ronson and the rest.This interview is outstanding!Can’t wait to find the Peter Perret book,along with ‘In Cold Blood.’ Thanks for this wonderful footage.

you’ll have to forgive my fellow ameircan shit heads. you have to understand, to alot of people Thunders is the only national gem we have. and as you can imagine alot of people are kindof possessive over him. i know it sounds stupid but to rock n’ roll dipshits in the states its very serious. and to have a brit be a poster child of johnny thunders nostalgia and knowledge is insulting to alot of people. thats the only reason people are talking shit, i apologise for them

well considering the fact that when the dolls were crucified in the states. the UK were the only ones that apreciated them. watch new york doll, it explains it much better

she never once glossed over, read her books and you’ll find out before judging so harshly.

ok, she was the first person to write the original JT fanzine, she wrote the only biographies on JT, the new York dolls and the heartbreakers, shes traveled to the states was in the Arthur Kane movie helped with the Morrissey meltdown and was very close friends with Mr thunders from the early 80s, you should do your research shes a legend never seen any Americans do that much work about the man..shes published all over the world.. you should look her up before judging anything…

I’ve actually had the chance to exchange words with Nina while doing research for my own writing, she’s an absolute sweetheart.
