I just remember him as Buster. Whenever I hear the song, Baby It’s Cold Outside, I think of Buster and Sigourney Weaver on SNL - it was the first time I heard the song. Prayers up, sir.

Sad news. I was never a specific fan, but he was significant in his day.

Oh, I remember Buster Poindexter - “Hot Hot Hot.”

Sorry to hear this news.

My main memory of his career is the Animals Medley that was in the regular rotation in the early days of MTV. (That was also my introduction to The Animals, who were mostly before my time.)

Actually saw David J perform a million years ago in a very small club where you sat on sofas. His big song was Funky But Chic. He was sort of a lesser Mick Jagger, and a bit of a wild man. Tons of energy. My date was extremely conservative, and I think he contributed to that relationship going nowhere.
Great memories.

I always liked the NY Dolls. They didn’t have great instrumental chops but could write some really good songs and David was a good singer/frontman.

Never heard of him or the New York Dolls, but maybe that’s because I can’t stand “glam rock,” which I regard as having been a steppingstone to today’s trans movement.

I used to read Creem magazine back in the day. Lester Bangs always had an article about The New York Dolls. I still can't name one song by them.
