TELEVISIONTelevision were one of the most creative bands to emerge from New York's punk scene
of the mid-'70s, creating an influential new guitar vocabulary. While guitarists
Tom Verlaine and Richard Lloyd liked to jam, they didn't follow the accepted rock
structures for improvisation -- they removed the blues while retaining the raw energy
of garage rock, adding complex, lyrical solo lines that recalled both jazz and rock.
With its angular rhythms and fluid leads, Television's music always went in
unconventional directions, laying the groundwork for many of the guitar-based
post-punk pop groups of the late '70s and '80s.In the early '70s, Television
began as the Neon Boys, a group featuring guitarist/vocalist Tom Verlaine,
drummer Billy Ficca, and bassist Richard Hell. At the end of 1973, the group
reunited under the name Television, adding rhythm guitarist Richard Lloyd

Television recorded a demo tape for Island Records with Brian Eno in 1975, yet the label decided
not to sign the band. Hell left the band after the recording of the demo tape, forming the
Heartbreakers with former New York Dolls guitarist Johnny Thunders; the following year,
he began a solo career supported by the Voidoids, releasing a debut album,
Blank Generation, in 1977. Hell was replaced by ex-Blondie bassist Fred Smith
and Television recorded "Little Johnny Jewel," releasing it on their own Ork record label.
"Little Johnny Jewel" became an underground hit, attracting the attention of major record labels.
In 1976 they signed with Elektra Records and began recording their debut album...(AllMusic)
