(TV) Echo

["Casey, Leo J" <CaseyL@VOLPE.DOT.GOV>]

This list has mentioned the group Echo and the Bunnymen a few times over the last 
couple of years, and Verlaine in an interview once said that he could hear Television's 
influence in the Will Seargent's guitar playing on Bunnymen's first couple of records.

In my car on way to work this morning, I heard a song by Echo and the Bunnymen 
that the college radio DJ said was from their new[?] cd, "Live in Liverpool".  The song's 
guitar was mixed way down, but the vocals were very upfront/prominent. It contained 
the refrain "kingdom come".  

Not very impressed (is the rest of cd any good?)---in fact, to purge the memory of the 
ponderous lyrics and pedestrian guitar I immediately blasted Flash Lightning.

"When I heard your name, I looked into my cup;
Lo, and behold, the seven seas came up.
When I hear your voice, the arrow flies;
The street turns silver, and the fools get wise."
