Most '80s glam metal bands may have swiped their look from the New York Dolls, but few modeled their sound after them (instead, Kiss, Aerosmith, and Van Halen seemed to be the genre's main musical influences).

 The Glam Years is a collection of demos that San Francisco based Jetboy recorded during their heydey in the late 80s, early 90s. The release has all their essential tunes plus a re-recording of Feel the Shake and a cover of Folsom Prison Blues written by Johnny Cash. Overall this a very satisfying album. It has the feel of a old school punk album because of its rawness but has the bite of a Glam/Sleaze album. Very Guns n Roses-like without the pretentiousness. Just real dirty rock n roll!!!!!
