LEIF GARRETT
 
 
Leif Garrett  (born Leif Per Nervik; November 8, 1961) is an American singer, actor and television personality.  He worked as a child actor then in the 1970s became famous as a teen idol.  He received much publicity for his drug abuse and legal troubles.  (More from Wikipedia)
 
 
In an interview for SugarbuzzMagazine.comJeff Drake mentions that Brian Walsh was also a sometime drummer for Amanda Jones; he was previously in teen heart-throb Leif Garrett’s band and was also in Slow Motorcade, who recorded a cover of one of my favorite New York Dolls songs, “Vietnamese Baby”.  The Slow Motorcade version of “Vietnamese Baby was included on a New York Dolls tribute album called Jetboys of Babylon (2005).
