Two years later, I was working The Mudd Club door. Standing outside, staring at the crowd, it was \"out there\" versus \"in here\" and I was on the inside. The Mudd Club was filled with the famous and soon- to- be famous, along with an eclectic core of Mudd regulars who gave the place its identity. Everyone from Jean-Michel Basquiat, Jeff Koons, and Robert Rauschenberg to Johnny Rotten, The Hell's Angels, and John Belushi: passing through, passing out, and some, passing on. Marianne Faithful and Talking Heads, Frank Zappa, William Burroughs, and even Kenneth Anger- just a few of the names that stepped on stage. No Wave and Post- Punk artists, musicians, filmmakers, and writers living in a nighttime world on the cusp of two decades. This book is a cornucopia of memories and images, and how this famed wicked downtown club attained the status of midtown and uptown. There was nothing else like it- I met everyone, and the job quickly defined me. I thought I could handle it, and for a while, I did. \"-Richard Boch\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51971761537312,"sku":"NEW1627310517","price":34.06,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/8187cykyCPL.jpg?v=1783779026","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/the-mudd-club-1627310517","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
