(TV) Not to Quibble, but...



>From the Nation's GENE SANTORO:  
> "The quartet, featuring the dueling guitars of Tom Verlaine and Richard Lloyd, refracted jazz influences
> (Verlaine adored Ornette Coleman and Albert Ayler) and sixties psychedelia (he loved the Grateful Dead, also jazz-influenced, and Jefferson Airplane as well)".

Not to quibble with a well written article or belabor the obvious, but Santoro got the above only half right (except for "Dark Star" it's a "no" on the Dead and a "no" on J.  Airplane), more like---Country Joe and Fish (at least their guitar sound) or The Count Five, etc. according to several Verlaine interviews.
