Synopsis
Tom Mitchell presents a biography of Television, the band credited with creating punk rock. Led by Tom Verlaine and Richard Hell they re-ignited the rock scene by combining the revolutionary art of the Velvet Underground with the street swagger of the New York Dolls., At the end of March 1974, Televison played for the first time at CBGB and punk rock was born. Before long they would be followed on the stage there by Patti Smith, the Ramones and Blondie, while Malcom McLaren would see them play and return hotfoot to London with the blueprint for the Sex Pistols. Television re-ignited the rock scene by combining the revolutionary art of the Velvet Underground with the street swagger of the New York Dolls. Sonic Transmission presents the complete story of Richard Hell, Tom Verlaine and Television, from the very beginning to the present days., The complete story of Richard Hell, Tom Verlaine and Televison, from the very beginning, illustrated with iconic photographs, with a comprehensive chronology and discography. Television's leaders, Richard Hell and Tom Verlaine, were brought together as teenagers by a love of literature and rock and roll - and contempt for almost everything else. At the end of March 1974, Television played for the first time at CBGB's, and punk rock was born. Soon they were followed by Patti Smith, the Ramones and Blondie, and Malcom McLaren used them as the blueprint for the Sex Pistols. Hell left in early 1975, and Verlaine developed Marquee Moon, arguably the most striking debut in rock history. After several split-ups, Television still creates new music today.
