I've never known much about the Heartbreakers, apart from some very basic history and the fact that Johnny Thunders was a cool-looking* bloke who played a Les Paul Junior.

But I've just been reading about Walter Lure and his history, fascinating but also quite tragic.  So many of those guys are no longer around.  RIP

(* I say cool-looking, but googling pictures just now he looks disturbingly unhealthy in most of them)
