I don't know if this has ever been mentioned on the list before. But
I was reading a piece from Kid Congo Powers of The Gun Club:
"then
came back and in 1984 and recorded The Las Vegas Story.
It had been
a while since we played together and he had become a really great guitari
st. You could really see the influence of Richard Lloyd and Tom Verlaine o
n that record. We were huge Television fans, and we wanted to use that sam
e interplay between guitars for the new material rather than do the same o
ld country punk conglomeration – blues punk thing… We did
that already. And we were in our free jazz and international music phase
– we were exploring new territories and we wanted to do a record t
hat satisfied us."
Later on he talks about them wantin
g Tom to produce an album for them, but he was unavailable. They also
asked John Cale, also unavailable.
