“Buster Poindexter” is the pseudonym rock singer David Johansen adopted in the mid-’80s for a semi-comic nightclub-singer act he began to perform. His “one hit wonder” song is entitled “Hot,Hot,Hot.” Eschewing his hard rock solo career (which followed a stint as lead singer of the New York Dolls), Johansen turned up at the New York club Tramps in a tuxedo, with a band he dubbed The Banshees of Blue, and sang pop standards, jump blues, and various novelty material. Eventually, the act won him a record contract, resulting in a few albums on RCA, but it was basically a live attraction. Since then, Johansen has pursued an acting career, though he maintains The Buster persona, appearing, for example, in the Catskills in the summer of 1992. Read more on Last.fm.
