Re: New Television album (includes an instrumental?)



From what I understand, they're kickstarting a living-room tour for this one.

A new Television album has been released on the RedMusic/SuperEgo label. Anyone ever heard of it? 
 
Originally entitled, "Drifter In The Snow", but the released cd/download is entitled "Sleep All Day".
 
An instrumental track is called 'Ms. Ferry (Biker-Surfer)'
I haven't been able to find a place to buy/dnld the album yet, but you can watch them perform an earlier incarnation of the instrumental here:
 
Surprisingly, the album apparently does not contain the song 'Persia' (originally a semi-instrumental) maybe new lyrics TV came up with didn't meet his high standards (maybe too high?).
 
 
Fred Smith and someone named Alfred Vail[?] co-produced with Verlaine
 
A quick search says it was recorded at Avatar Studios, I think this used to be known as The Power Station (441 W. 53rd St., NYC).
 
Only thing I could find on Vail is here:
