This rock 'n' roll Angela's Ashes begins in County Wexford, Ireland, in the late 1950s, a vibrant but now almost unrecognizable, womb-like theocracy. Upon arrival in New York, Kirwan finds himself side by side with the Ramones and Blondie at CBGBs; the brothers McCourt, Lester Bangs, and Nick Tosches at The Bells of Hell; the hell-raising cast of revolutionaries and regulars of Paddy Reilly's while Black 47 mixes its brew of politics and genre-bending rock under the watchful eyes of Joe Strummer, Rick Ocasek, and Neil Young. Green Suede Shoes remembers three decades of a lost New York, and the people who have made it what it is.
