Marquee Moon

Description

Formed around legends of the New York punk rock scene like Tom Verlaine and icon Richard Hell, Television would establish itself as one of the essential bands of the mid-70s in just two albums. Despite the commercial failure of the American release of Marquee Moon, it was in England that the reception would be the most successful. Considered their masterpiece, this first album would ultimately become the reference record for a generation whose leader is none other than Patti Smith. - ("excerpt from the Discothèque Idéale Fnac guide")
