Worth noting: this guy is a published author, which few if any of the fine writers on this list can say of themselves. So if he chooses to use that credibility to convince a publisher to put out a book on Television... good on him! And if that gets a little more notice paid to Tom and the band, double good.

Agreed.
I am, in fact, working on a book about this stuff, but the problem is - do you write it for the 200 people who care or do you aim it at everyone else who doesn't care? If the former, then where's the selling point? If the latter, then maybe it ends up as being about "the band who invented punk" which, frankly, is not only wrong but a waste of time.
