Honoring the genius of Tom Verlaine
Thanks for that, Steve. Side one of Marquis Moon is one of rare perfection. I stlll, 40 years after, find something novel and fascinating every time it spins. Verlaine was one of a kind.
The last time I saw Television, they did the “climb” that climaxes Tom’s solo…and then did it again, before bringing it to a close!
Also, Verlaine released 2 albums in 2006: one vocal and one instrumental.
I can only imagine the effect of that version of "Marquee Moon." Wow!
How did I not know of these 2006 releases? No clue, but thanks for letting me know.
