It was 7 years ago that I first heard Tom Verlaine say:
"This here's a newie....goes like this"
And finally a new Television album is nearing completion,
albeit without Richard Lloyd, who left to persue The
Radiant Monkey and his own musical vision. So its sheer
conjecture as to which of these new TV songs will have made
it into the studio along with replacement, Jimmy Rip.
Here, then, is a compilation of live performances of those
new songs as performed in recent years. May this serve as
a fitting farewell to Mr Lloyd's involvement with the group
and an appreciation of his contribution to the evolving of
these new songs.
These are audience recordings so sonic quality is not ideal.
However,the passion is all there in the zeros & the ones...
01 I Could Sleep All Day (Washington DC 2003-03-24)
02 Rise & Fall (London 2005-06-21)
03 Frustration (Sao Paolo 2005-10-25)
04 Flower Spasm (London 2005-06-21)
05 Balloon (Washington DC 2003-03-24)
06 Persia (London 2004-06-23)
07 The Sea ((Hamburg 2004-06-18)

Outstanding! This music blog is shaping up to be one of best. Keep it coming...
Thanks for taking the time to compile this. Great blog.
Looking forward to some new TV even without Richard Lloyd. It's amazing Lloyd and Verlaine have managed to coexist in a band for as long as they have.
