Hell. By no means a tragic hero, Johnny Thunders couldn’t even be a tragic hero sandwich. Forget the fact that he comes across as a self-serving, racist twit, that he can’t really sing, that he knows one riff and played it to death years ago, and that there’s this unspoken—and absurd—implication here that if Johnny only “cleaned up” things would be great.
