Tom Verlaine Marquee Moon

[Disposessor]

So sad that the song is cut off at the best part!

[DoctorRazzArea4]

nice hat bru

[IKillGoliath]

Don't listen to the tempo listen to the song hes playing one of the greats.

[Renhjarta]

ahh. Tom Verlaine on a Fender Jazzmaster into a Fender Twin Reverb, probably played damn loud. Love it!

[desasterz]

Too Fast!

[134dt]

há melhor dialogo de violas que este ? ...

[kohisiyo]

亜米利加のニュウーウェーブの元祖,テレビジョンのトム・バーラ­インが,独特の反復するギターのリフにのり,代表作を披露してま­す。

未だ活躍してるのでしょうか?!ﾆｰﾙ・ﾔﾝｸﾞ同様,一聴して­誰か解るｷﾞﾀｰﾌﾟﾚｲ!

もっと活躍して欲しいものです。

upされた御方に感謝します。

Wonderfull !!!!!!

[monaurallab]

I want to listen this performance more than 9:59

[woak]

Transcendent! Marquee Moon has better build and climax than Bolero. Verlaine is triumphant virtuoso. Never tire of this song.

[aprilglaspieable]

He obviously inspired Rich Gilbert, a gift to anybody that loves guitar playing. It's a sure thing HSR was listening to this.

[Capillus]

This guy changed my approach to the guitar! he is great, his playing is amazing, his lyrics are brilliant. Period.

[xPsuedo]

i understand anyone who might be out off by tom's crummy vocals, but there's no denying that he's an amazing guitarist.

[newpageone]

i don't think it's 'too fast.' it's faster than the record, yeah, but i kind of like the tempo. tom's such a great guitarist, though.  really inspires me to keep playing.

[tcoreyb]

The tempo here is like 50% too fast. Pretty cool though!

[PAULisDEADMANnumber9]

they were way to short-lived.

[fuanamon]

i think this show is "la edad de oro" or i´m wrong ?

[asktunes]

Verlaine's a totally undervalued guitarist. He has his own signature sound: tinny, manic, sweet & heavy on the vibrato...

[hightimesbruce]

Yeah, this is an amazing song, but they are playing this way too fast.

[MarceloVulgo73]

Do caralho Television é uma das maiores

bandas da historia do rock.Marque Moon

é um dos meus albums preferidos.

Great band, Tom Verlaine é um grande

guitarrista!

[renison47]

AHHH!! that solo and buildup into the coda gives me chills like none other!!

[skipowpow]

I saw them open for peter gabriel in 77'

fantastic show.

[SLARTIEBARDFARST]

I saw them in Cleveland on that tour. It was Peters first solo tour. I hated Marquee Moon when I heard it on the college station before the concert. Then I went to that concert and was blown away. I miss Television!

[TurboJimmy87]

is it the speed how they played it?!

[mintygreen]

Damn youtube and their ten minute limit for videos!!!!!!

[ThomasJeromeNewton]

I prefer the eno version

no jeff without a tim btw

;)

[heatherdaydream]

I always loved this song, and cute Tom, etc...but I hear this bass line now and ...uhhmm....it's very very cool

[123defriisk]

Television,some will never get it and thats good too...this was a supergroup and right the Edge could learn a lot...

[dukethejuke]

Like most zepp fans "you don't get it". But that's ok , maybe some day you will.

[austinzeppelin]

I've never heard this song before, or listened to this band. However, I must say, their instrumental elements of the song is very well constructed. The only thing that sets me off is the lead singer's voice. It is completely off beat with the music, and makes me wonder 'Why did they ruin such good instrumentals with lyrics to this song?'

[babybloc]

Not sure what you mean. It's syncopated on the off beat, but it's not a mistake. It threw me when I first heard and I couldn't figure out what they were doing. That's just the kind of stuff Television did that nobody else was.

Verlaine's not a classically strong vocalist, but I find him pretty expressive in the NY 70's way. And he's surely got about the most interesting, unexpected solos from here to Bill Frissell

[babybloc]

You might check out their "Elevation" to really have your head spin.

[inhmn]

well - his voice is not very good LIVE but anyway it's in perfect match with the astonishing music. Listen to Tom Verlaine - Kingdome Come

[FBEGNEZ]

good version!

[syr1811]

Amazingly inspired solo. Very cool stuff.  I usually prefer the stuff when Richard Lloyd is Co-Lead, but this is pretty friggin' nice. Thanks, psssyche.

[fakenhamman]

You can see how he influenced jeff buckley and why he wanted him to produce his last album, even if the result was slightly disapointing

[grfcc]

your in a rut you better get out of it

[ToolsnFire]

Apparently, in the late 1970's, U2's Edge was significantly influenced by Television's/Tom Verlaine's guitar playing style/ethos, of playing what you feel, any way like, no rules, except 'does it communicate what you want'. 

Do we hear 'Another Day' in the backing guitar.

[mypartyshop]

bought the albumns in the 70's - 1st time ive seen the video!!!

[cowheadcow]

one of the best solos I've ever heard, live or recorded. What a talented guy.

[pierrebarraud]

Un chant approximatif comme on l'aime...

[rockeurFRANCE]

d'accord avec toi il rentre dans mes meilleurs groupes

[PaulVermillion]

One of the best versions of the song ever...

[ClueSign]

Someone put me out of my misery and tell me what show this was?

[Iomarca]

Madrid, 1984. Spanish television show.

Verlaine, Jimmy Ripp guitar, Fred Smith bass, JayDee Daugherty drums.

Check out the rest of the show on the Related Videos links.
