60 Ft. Dolls was formed in Newport in 1992 by Richard J. Parfitt and Michael Cole, who met through Donna Matthews (later of Elastica) who was at the time, dating Cole. After support from Oasis, Dinosaur Jr, and others, 60 Ft. Dolls released their second single White Knuckle Ride on Rough Trade Records and then Pig Valentine on the RCA imprint Indolent Records. These early singles were championed heavily by Steve Lamacq and, consequently, were picked up by influential American DJ Rodney Bingenheimer.
These are videos from concerts where 60 Ft. Dolls played, so they may be of other bands that played the concert as well.
