I recall hearing him on the bill as Steve Marcus and the New York Dolls in Boston at the Orpheum (1975?) and at the Showbox in Seattle (1984 or thereabouts). He was an original who always surrounded himself with excellent musicians. RIP

Songs like "Peaches" and "This is the day" are priceless. The cover of Trout Mask is a classic found in all the album cover books.
