Television – Marquee Moon

Released in 1977, Marquee Moon is the debut album by American band Television and a cornerstone of post-punk and alternative rock.

With its precise musicianship, interlocking guitars, and poetic sensibility, the record stands out for its raw yet sophisticated approach that would go on to influence countless artists. Tracks like “See No Evil”, “Venus”, and the epic title track “Marquee Moon” showcase Tom Verlaine’s brilliance as both a guitarist and songwriter, delivering a distinctive sound that broke away from the conventions of 1970s rock. A must-have album for any collection that values creativity and the avant-garde spirit of New York’s late-70s scene.
