New York Dolls

The live recording of "Cause I Sez So" by the New York Dolls took place on May 1, 2009, during a special event at John Varvatos' boutique, situated at the historic site of CBGB. This performance came shortly after the release of their fourth studio album, also titled *Cause I Sez So*, which was released on May 5, 2009. This marked an important phase in the band's later career, as they were re-emerging after a lengthy hiatus, having originally formed in the early 1970s and disbanded in 1977. The album was noted for showcasing their signature glam-rock sound while incorporating modern elements, reflecting their evolution. The event itself was a celebration not just of the album but also of their legacy in the punk and glam rock movements, with significant ties to New York City's rich musical history. This performance highlighted the Dolls' resilience and their commitment to continuing their artistic journey.
