From its opening in 1965, Max's was the epicenter of the earthquake that was New York art in the '60s and '70s. From The Velvet Underground playing their last shows before Lou Reed dipped, to Andy Warhol and his minions colonizing the back room, to a pre-Blondie Debbie Harry taking patron's orders, Max's was swimming with monumental genius. The club prospered with glam rock as Bowie, Iggy, and Lou stuck around, but ultimately dwindled with it as well. The original spot shut it doors in 1974 and reopened a number of times under new ownership, but, as per usual, it just wasn't the same.
