Before the platform boots and the debut album, the New York Dolls were a scrappy gang still figuring it out, and Would You Let Your Son Room With A Doll digs into those earliest days on limited splatter vinyl in clear, black, white and pink.

This 2026 rarities collection gathers early studio demos and live material alongside the famous Actress recordings, named for the proto-Dolls band that featured Johnny Thunders and Arthur Kane. It's the sound of one of New York's most influential rock and roll bands before Todd Rundgren's production, before the tabloids, and long before punk claimed them as godfathers.

Familiar classics turn up in raw, unvarnished form. "Personality Crisis" and "Jet Boy" crackle with nervous energy, "Looking for a Kiss" swaggers with sloppy, irresistible charm, and "Frankenstein" lurches along in all its trashy glory. The Actress-era "I Am Confronted" offers a glimpse of the band before the name.

Rough edges are the whole appeal here. You can hear the Stones-meets-girl-group strut, the cheap guitars and the attitude that would go on to inspire generations of punk and glam bands on both sides of the Atlantic.

For anyone who already owns the two studio albums, this is the missing prequel, and the loud, colorful pressing gives it a flamboyant finish the Dolls would surely have approved of.
