TV Party: The Documentary

Brilliant documentary on the revolutionary public access punk rock cable TV show from New York City - In 1978, two revolutionary trends emerged in New York City, public access cable TV and punk rock. These two phenomena came together spectacularly in Glenn O'Brien's TV Party. O'Brien recruited his pal Chris Stein, the guitarist of Blondie, as his co-host, fellow Factory kid Walter Steding as leader of The TV Party Orchestra, and underground film director Amos Poe as director and the rest, as you'll see, was history. Hipsters tuned in to follow the antics of the TV Party gang and such guests as Iggy Pop, David Bowie, P-Funk's George Clinton, The Clash's Mick Jones, Kid Creole, Klaus Nomi, as well as performances from acts like Tuxedo Moon, the Brides of Funkenstein, Alex Chilton, and more.

Was always more of a fan of west coast HARDCORE! New York Punk gave us some of the best,Ramones,Johnny Thunders,Dead Boys,but just a bit Artsy for me.

Typical NY selfimportant drab.Must've been big fun to be involved with,and might've been funny for 15 minutes ...then•
Can imagine Johnny & Yoko watching this after they'd done the dishes,and having rows,about if they'd should go out more.Fripp's & Harry's contribution stands the test of time.Lenin's presence...a subliminal message this venture was doomed ?Interesting document.
