the best songs never get recorded the best recordings never get released the best releases never get played Cant remember who said that first, but its got a lot of truth in itIts better that they are not instantly hummable by the masses and they never achieved huge success, who wants to see a band in a big venue at hyped up prices ?
Its a success that almost 30 years after they started we're still talking about them and theyre still playing

New Wave. But Marquee Moon showed the group as the exclusive project of guitarist Tom Verlaine, an interesting Jerry Garcia influenced guitarist who lacked melodic ideas or any emotional sensibility."
