Thought Greg Might or Should Know Chords / RE: (TV) WTF, Tom?



Hi Greg,

Glad you're still posting.  

I thought that if anyone could answer Rex's original question [see below in
case you missed it] about the mysterious, wonderful [thunderous?] opening
chords to 'There's A Reason" it might be Greg Grant since you covered this
very song on one of the Marquee Moon List's infamous Television/Verlaine
Tribute cds.

Also: 
I saw a Canadian pressing of Dreamtime on E-bay yesterday, but I didn't buy
it.  Why not?  Because I already have one from years ago :>)(as well as a
great sounding Japanese pressing) .... albeit the 2005[?] Collector's Choice
remastered digital version sounds great too. 

Last but not least: 
RE your and Keith's " ...And the/noises/!...."
What would you expect of an album that contains a song named 'A Future In
Noise.'

hearing the opening of "There's A Reason", which was the first
Television-related recording I ever heard, I was immediately forced to
wonder... what the HELL are those chords?  The really high ones that hit on
the 3 of each measure in the intro and verse?  I really have no idea.  They
sound vaguely Hendrix-y, but if Hendrix was even more of alien being that he
was.  Any ideas?"

I concur with Keith, especially about the noises!

Ah, my favourite TV album. I play it more than Marquee
Moon. It's the 
perfect blend of energy, art and invention. And the/noises/!
