- Richard Lloyd made his name as the guitarist for the underground rock band 'Television'. Having joined the band (Richard Hell - Bass, Vocals, Tom Verlaine - Guitar, Vocals, Billy Ficca - Drums) in 1973, he and Television manager Terry Ork discovered CBGB the following year - the club out of which American Punk music developed. Signed to Elektra in 1977, the band recorded two seminal albums - 'Marquee Moon' and 'Adventure', and despite the stature of these works now, at the time they failed to break Television into the big time, and they disbanded in 1978.
In this interview Lloyd discusses the New York underground scene in the 1970s, Andy Warhol, CBGB and the host of acts who emerged there (including The Ramones), his time in Television and the UK Punk scene they inspired. - Hudba
The drumming on Tom's solo records isn't bad, but Billy Ficca's drumming on "Marquee Moon" is just impossible to top
Oh brother,Richard can sure spin a yarn.
"If you listen to Tom'a solo records you'll see -- might as well be a drum machine." Maybe for WFTF, but the drumming is interesting and creative on the first two -- listen again to "Flash Lightning," brilliant staccato work from Jay Dee.
That "drum machine" powered all of Patti Smiths music.That's an unnesseccary slight of J D Daugherty's fine drumming.You know who loves playing with J.D.? Fred Smith.
'Nuff said.
Plenty of good drumming throughout tom's solo career. Maybe he's talking about the times he was actually using a drum machine?
Back room man...
Dentist meets the television avengers..
