(blogged by Howie Klein) Tomorrow you can celebrate birthdays for Joan Baez, Jimmy Page, Dave Matthews, Crystal Gayle... and David Johansen. Here's a 1973 live club performance by David's band, The New York Dolls, of the greatest song David ever wrote, "Personality Crisis."

For tonight's LNMC contest there's no Dolls prize but there sure is some cool party music to help celebrate any birthday any time: a 3 CD set called THE ULTIMATE SOUL COLLECTION with great hits by The O'Jays, the Isley Brothers, the Chambers Brothers, Marvin Gaye, Bill Withers, Earth, Wind & Fire, The Manhattans, Galdys Knight & The Pips, Johnnie Taylor... And to win all you have to do is write the best paragraph explaining why The New York Dolls are important. Send your paragraph to downwithtyranny at aol.com
