MUSIC REVIEW
TOM VERLAINE
At: The Paradise, Wednesday.
Tom Verlaine, leader of the group Television, was one of the standout guitarist-singers
of the mid-'70s New York new wave -- emphasis, by the way, on guitarist. Television
made just two albums, but made an imprint. Unlike their contemporaries, Verlaine and
partner Richard Lloyd were new wavers who were unafraid of a long, snarling, lyrical
guitar battle. Call them the Neil Young & Crazy Horse of their day. You can hear their
ideas reverberating now in the music of 11th Dream Day.
