Nothing says 1970s Lower East Side better than Johnny Thunders performing the classic CHINESE ROCKS.
“I’M LIVING ON CHINESE ROCKS. ALL MY BEST THINGS ARE IN HOCK.”
He was a legend on the Lower East Side.
“I take smack because I enjoy it. I enjoy all it makes me feel. I don’t do it to be in with the in crowd. I can rock out with it.”
He was no quitter.
But some of us loved Johnny, because he was the strongest of the weakest.
