(TV) A television "fan" on amazon.com

["Pontrelli, Paul Jay" <jPontrelli@stites.com>]

I'm going to get some very angry e-mails over this review, but someone has
to tell the truth about this album: IT'S TERRIBLE!! I picked up "Marquee
Moon" because many of the bands I admire played with Television during the
CBGB's days, & this album is often referred to as a watershed recording from
that period. Upon first listening I wondered if the wrong CD had been put
into the packaging, but no such luck! The music on "Marquee Moon" has no
melody, no rhythm & no hooks. It is as if a bunch of philosophy majors in
college read about rock n roll without ever hearing it, bought some
instruments & formed a band. The most favorable comparison I can make is a
punk Be Bop Deluxe, but that is insulting to Bill Nelson! In short - buyer
beware!
