It’s a sad day for me as I just found out Tom Verlaine from Television has died. The album Marquee Moon absolutely changed my life. To quote from “Prove It” which also includes my favorite guitar solo of all time:
Now the rose

Honestly there’s no a single wrong note in the whole 46 minutes of the album’s runtime. If you ever wondered how does a snake gets out of its skin, the song “Friction” has a depiction. Everyone should listen to this album at least once in their lives. Seriously.
RIP old Tom.
