In November 2005, the New York Dolls performed at Studio 104 in Paris, a pivotal time in their career as they were in the midst of a resurgence following their reunion. Before this live recording, they had released their self-titled comeback album "New York Dolls" in 2004, which marked their first studio album in over 30 years. The recording highlights a mix of classic tracks and newer material, showcasing their signature glam rock sound while also demonstrating their evolution as artists. Notably, this performance featured David Johansen, who was the band's charismatic frontman, bringing the same raw energy that defined their early days in the 1970s. The setlist included fan favorites like "Personality Crisis" and newer songs like "Dance Like a Monkey," underscoring the band's ability to blend their historical legacy with contemporary influences. This concert was part of their broader effort to reclaim their place in rock history and connect with both new and old fans alike.
