Television - Double Exposure
Television is in my forever top ten. I am on the never-ending Indiana Jones quest for Television boots. There are a few dazzlers (Live at The Old Waldorf) and some duds (The Blow Up). This one's pretty nifty if only because it's a historical piece showing a more stripped down and angular Television sound and the noodling of Richard Hell on bass before Verlaine claimed King of the Hill and Hell moved on to his Voidoids thing.
Here are some small facts on Double Exposure:
"Quote of the uploader on Dime: The 1974 Demos were produced by Brian Eno and Richard Williams for Island Records, at Good Vibrations Studios in NYC. I have marked them as being recording in December, 1974, as Richard Williams did not see the band for the first time until the end of November, 1974, and these demos have always been identified as 1974 demos. So, in all likelihood they were recorded in December, 1974. "
