Sore foot; quiet day; 'domestic job'. Sheets. Sink. Gather in'. All the while got #MarqueeMoon on. Bell-like. Plaintive. Beautiful. Rock without the dumb blokes. Of *all of guitar music* & yet in its own universe. Clanging & ringing. Sorting my day, asitappens.

Back in the day, I learned liddl bits of #MarqueeMoon guitar. Those of you who’ve read #BeautifulGames will know I now have a crocked hand. But maybe… as part of the re-hab… ?
Cheap shot mebbes but I reckon if you like #MarqueeMoon, you’ll probs like my book - #BeautifulGames.
It’s in there because I loved that the clean, beautiful guitar-work was wonderfully (& uniquely) stripped of all it’s machismo. We - & rock ‘n roll - needed that.

Verlaine/Lloyd generally get the plaudits for the title track but Smith's bass is just as, if not more, essential. A monumental contribution to culture. Rest easy Fred.

"He lay shuddering, riveted by flickering movements of aliens and angels as the words and melodies of #MarqueeMoon were formed, drop by drop, note by note, from a state of calm yet sinister excitement. He was #TomVerlaine and that was his process: exquisite torment."
#PattiSmith @newyorker.com
Marquee Moon (1977), premier album du groupe Television.
Marquant le rock new-yorkais par ses guitares fines et entrelacées, c'est un disque clé du post-punk. Il est devenu un classique et un album qui a profondément marqué le rock indépendant.

Today’s excuse for doing avoiding proper work - I’ve been trying to play Richard Lloyd’s solo from #MarqueeMoon - you know it, the two descending runs followed by a really high bit - but on piano. You may ask why, and my answer is that it seemed more fun than arguing with the tax man on the phone.

As close to it gets as a perfect album imo. You can tell Tom Verlaine put so much thought into every note. I may be a bit biased as he’s from my town and went to the same high school as my wife.
