Marquee Moon - Electra Records 1977 Television's debut album, 'Marquee Moon' is unarguably one of early punk's seminal releases. Released in 1977, the album is marked by inventive and freewheeling guitar playing, jazzy drumming and poetic lyrics. And while most albums from that year have become less prominent over time, the influence of 'Marquee Moon' can still heard a quarter of a decade later in the music of bands such as the Strokes & Sonic Youth. If you had to whittle 'Marquee Moon' down to its essence, everything that is remarkable about this album can be found in its title track. The 10+ minute song features the strikingly beautiful and interesting guitar work of Tom Verlaine and Richard Lloyd.
The two take turns letting loose dazzling displays of unique six-string styles, with everything from improvised and loose notes to complex and mesmerizing melodic soundscapes that are like a punk rock opera that demand new and unexpected sound formations from the guitar. And the rest of the album is equally as brilliant.

The opening cut, 'See No Evil,' has an art-punk Click to hear clip of ' sensibility that quirky bands such as the Talking Heads would adapt and transform (in a diluted form) into radio-friendly new wave. 'Torn Curtain' is an aching ballad that echoes the art-music scene of New York and sounds as if it were written for Patti Smith. Songs such as 'Venus' and 'Friction' are propelled by intricate guitar parts and shuffling drumbeats that still sound relevant today. Adventure - Electra Records 1978 Released in 1978, Television's second album, 'Adventure' was nearly as great as 'Marquee Moon' in its songwriting and performances. But while 'Marquee Moon' had an immediate presence and no-frills production, 'Adventure' found Television opting for a more lush and layered sound. The band added keyboards and piano to the mix and beefed up the reverb on the drums, which helped flesh out the band's sound, but also made them sound slightly removed.
The flaming and telepathic guitar interplay between Richard Lloyd and Tom Verlaine carries over from 'Marquee Moon.' As the liner notes correctly point out, 'Lloyd has compared [his and Verlaine's] tandem playing to the intermesh of two gear teeth, or to the synergy of a left brain/right brain combination.' This musical communication is evident on tracks such as 'Days' which is a gentle guitar jam that effortlessly intertwines creative riffs and sounds like a mellow new wave pop love song. On 'The Fire' the fluttering guitar notes sound at times like beautiful butterflies and at others, like annoying mosquitoes buzzing in one's ear. The album's closing track, 'The Dream's Dream' has a soundtrack quality that takes the listener to an otherworldly place, with its chiming harmonics and long instrumental passages of guitars plucking notes that talk to one another in a secret language.
