Television was one of the most creative bands to emerge from New York's punk scene of the mid-'70s, creating an influential guitar vocabulary. Guitarists Tom Verlaine and Richard Lloyd didn't follow the accepted rock structures for improvisation; they removed the blues while retaining the raw energy of garage rock, adding complex solo lines that recalled both jazz & rock. With its angular rhythms and fluid leads, Television's music always went in unconventional directions, laying the groundwork for many of the guitar-based post-punk pop groups of the late '70s and '80s. This, their debut album, was a UK Top 10 Hit and remains one of the most influential rock recordings of the late 20th Century. Out-of-print on vinyl for many years, this is now available on 180 gram vinyl with gatefold sleeve.

Televisions 2nd LP highlights the guitar interplay of Tom Verlaine and Richard Lloyd. It shows the dreamier side of this groundbreaking band. Original artwork. High quality 180 gram vinyl.

Vinyl LP pressing of this 1982 release from the British Indie legends. Comprised of early singles, demos, outtakes and unreleased tracks recorded between 1979 and 1982, They Could Have Been Bigger Than the Beatles was Television Personalities' third full-length. The unannotated retrospective is a surprisingly cohesive collection of singular and classic tunes, from the haunting single "Three Wishes" ("If I had three wishes I'd wish for three more") and the brilliant "David Hockney's Diaries" (a different and much better version from the one on Mummy Your Not Watching Me) to the perennial Punk classic "14th Floor" and the enthusiastically sloppy versions of The Creation's "Painter Man" and "Making Time," to the gentle freakbeat of "The Boy in the Paisley Shirt" and "Psychedelic Holiday." It's a perfect autumn soundtrack, and autumn is the whole year.
