Agreed, close your eyes, open your ears & Lloyd Cole comes instantly to mind. Never a bad thing... |

Used to jam to this in Tokyo wishing for supplements when there were none to be had... Well now I'm where there's no place higher, and yup, it's come to life in ways expected that never get old... God, what a great thing in my life Radio Paradise is!   |

Television was around when Ric Ocasek was still playing in cover bands. |

Wrong Lloyd.
Richard Lloyd and Tom Verlaine - one of the greatest guitar duos of all time.

Well, these guys were a very influential early new wave band in the late 1970's/early 80's that never had much commercial success but had a cult following. Critics in NYC kept asking who'd get big first, the Talking Heads or these guys. These guys always made literary lyrics with interesting songs built on often elaborate quirky guitar riffs. Nice to hear them here— they should be a staple of alternative radio.
Agreed. Actually, Television was playing around NYC by 1973 or '74 (originally with Richard Hell on bass). Great stuff - brilliant musicians. Their first album (ca.1977?) also pre-dates any Lloyd Cole recording by at least six or seven years. |
