Tom Verlaine

Tom Verlaine left us yesterday. He was 73.
Lately (and coincidentally or not it's happening a lot after this decreasing of the pandemic of Covid 19) many of our beloved musicians are dying. This blog is not an obituary but it looks like that, lately. And there were not even mentioned David Crosby, Jeff Beck and others...
Tom Verlaine was the heart and the soul and the frontman of his band Television. Television is one of the "punkosaurus" species, they started to be known due to their concerts in the legendary New York City music club CBGB since 1974. Once this blog is mostly devoted to barely known recordings, the only song posted here was an amazing cover of "Knocking on Heavens Door". Now is time to pay homage to this fantastic artist, Tom Verlaine. We're gonna miss him terribly.
