Hear the entire session and interview: Buster Poindexter is the lounge-lizard alter-ego of David Johansen, one of rock’s most influential singers. After founding the seminal glam-punk band The New York Dolls, and beginning a successful solo career, Johansen unveiled his Buster Poindexter character in the mid-1980s -- and you’ve been dancing to his version of “Hot Hot Hot” at weddings ever since. Poindexter has been known to sing pop standards, novelty songs, classic rock ’n’ roll, and old blues. Watch Buster Poindexter and his band perform “Heart Of Gold“ in a special Soundcheck Pop-Up session and interview at WNYC's own Greene Space. For more, visit and follow on Twitter at @Soundcheck.
