Thanks for this as I deal with his passing. Shows his humor that a lot of people miss in his lyrics, maybe because we were mesmerized by his guitar genius. Just gotta say, “I fell into the arms of Venus de Milo.”
I've been a fan of punk and 70s rock for a long time and had this band in my orbit but never listened to them. Only found out about them after Tom passed away and I am crushed. Tom was super talented and obviously super funny in this interview. This band shouldve put out more work, Television was genius.
Tom's view on death @ 4:15 is that he believes that life is eternal. I hope to see him jamming in heaven some day since I regretfully missed seeing him in concert locally when he was here a couple years ago.
We talked at Battery Park in 06' , we were planning on going into Piranha smuggling from the bayou after the Hammerhead success in Panama. He told me no Hammerheads were hurt in the process so I was hooked. He went it alone though..told me he lost the tip of his ring finger on his right hand and would never play Kingdom Come after that..saying that he held the pick with that finger...I thought he was psyching me out just to get me outta the deal. Glad I have a version of Yung Wu doing that track...perpetuity y'know !
Someone who traveled with him (I don’t think it was Jimmy Rip but someone like that) said he would adopt characters and not leave them for days. I’ll look for the comment and edit it if I find again who was talking about that, but this is exactly what he is doing here.
I'm in Heaven. Listening to Television and Tom on my headphones as a stdent in the 80s. I was a sad young woman but I lost myself in those guitar solos.
Always heard he was funny. Maybe he had to go into another character/voice to do that. Also recommend Television on Later with Jules Holland for Tom letting loose at the end of "1880 or So."
I emailed him. This interview and the full Marquee Moon is available for paid subscribers, over an hour. I hope he reconsiders and releases this one in its entirety someday for everyone for whom subscribing to an Italian language channel isn’t really feasible.
After the recent days of sadness, the humor in this is very welcome! How many accents does he go through in this?!? And MM... well, what is there to say?
Bellissimo ricordo, il concerto immagino è quello dell'11 aprile al Teatro delle Voci, dove per una sera rivivemmo gli anni del CBGB, un mondo che non c'è più ma che ci ha lasciato tanto
My personal belief is that the best artists are their true selfs. TV captured this in spades & I feel blessed I saw him several times and met him in Boston. A true genius 😊
se si tralasciano le banali domande che rivolge agli artisti (oltre alle panzane complottiste a cui crede), il materiale di Red Ronnie è anche apprezzabile, chiaramente tutto merito di chi intervista
grazie per quest'intervista che non avevo mai visto. devo dire che mi aspettavo una personalità completamente diversa, meno istrionica e fattona, assai più pacata e riflessiva. forse giocava una parte? a ogni modo, un lutto ENORME.

@@slugluv1313 I knew Tom Verlaine in the 1970s. He was generally shy. This interview is remarkable because he was actually funny and joking. Must have been the coffee and cigarettes! Lol

I'm speechless. The man was truly truly truly OUT THERE.
yep
Holy shit, I've loved Television for ages, but I never realised until now that Tom Verlaine is the Norm Macdonald of punk rock! 😂

Eternal life is just wishfull thinking
@@henriksrensen3220 For your sake, I hope you are right.
@@EugBaseball to believe in something without evidence is irrational
@@henriksrensen3220 Yes, in that we agree.
Ho amato i Television sin dal primo ascolto !!!! Ormai 30 anni fa , addio Tom e grazie!!!!!!!
Excellent ! Thank you posting this. Revelatory indeed. Rest In Peace Tom

As a fellow privateer, he shoulda shared more of his general booty w/us...but free will and all...dew whatcha gotta dew Tom! Cya
it's great how goofy he is here with his accents and messing around in the interview RIP to a unique genius
it's hilarious that he's trying a NYC italian accent to give an interview to an italian journalist
But also a southern accent mixed in, which seems to be a favorite.
Marquee Moon è uno di quei dischi che musicalmente parlando, mi ha cambiato la vita
non sei l'unico 👍
Idem...disco fantastico!!
Ho dato via un sacco di vinili di qualsiasi genere o valore ma Television Marquee Moon è sempre lì ... finché avrò vita ...
That was wonderful! If there’s more, all of us would love to see it!

Is there a complete version of this? I have to say, this made me feel a lot better.
un genio. marquee moon uno dei migliori album della storia
Fantastic solo on Marquee Moon , Tom for ever !
che tipo! very mystical 🖤
ma quale mystical, a me in questa intervista mi sembra ubriaco fatto! comunque un grande artista e chitarrista!
@@Nonso880 Forse era fatto ma le risposte non erano superficiali.
Wonderful! Where has video like this been all this time?
in the red ronnie home archive he says will upload 1987 live of 75 minutes
I emailed him. This interview and the full Marquee Moon is available for paid subscribers, over an hour. I hope he reconsiders and releases this one in its entirety someday for everyone for whom subscribing to an Italian language channel isn’t really feasible.
Mi dispiace moltissimo, Marquee Moon e' uno degli Album che ha cambiato la mia visione della Musica Undergroumd di New York. Rip Tom.

this is golden :D💜❤❤ RIP my funny hero
Saw him twice. Once in the 80s and again in the early 2000s. My spouse fainted at the climax of one of his solos. Just sayin
Bellissima intervista!
Fantastic solo
Agree
Great! Thank you!
This is perfect.
For the love of all things holy, please upload the full song.
Still waiting!
@@karenstinnett seems like a crime against music not to let us see it.
@@Erdnase23
I agree totally
Grazie Red. Siamo sempre più soli...

A true genius 😊
Grande Red!! ... 💞
Haha this is great! Who knew TV was such a goofball?
The last taboo. May you RIP Tom
We were mesmerized by his guitar playing that we didn't know who he was.
That was awesome.
Totally criminal though, to cut the vid before the tune was finished.
Ma vi rendete conto di come ha suonato? Spettacolo puro! Peccato che nn senta l orgammsno finale!
Marqueenoon disco fantastico
He was a bit of a guitar wizard
We'll miss you buddy
Love you tom
❤️❤️❤️
トムヴァーラインの地声初めて聞いたけどこんなトムウェイツみたいな声だったのかよ🥹
Genius
Da queste Cose Belle alle vibrazioni aliene, che tracollo
He was funny!

beh apprezzabile è un eufemismo e toglierei anche l'anche è un archivio oggettivamente non contraffatto e storicamente prezioso
@@XanAxDdu è un archivio prezioso solo grazie a chi intervista, lui è il nulla cosmico
He needs to share this one though, the complete 75 minutes.
woah no way they made Alvvays song Tom Verlaine into a real person!
Are they talking about doing "Home Alone 2"?
I like to think that Kevin from Home Alone grew up to be Tom Verlaine.
The caddillac has pulled out of the graveyard.
❤❤❤
Goodbye Tom.
VERY FASHIONABLE HYAT 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁

Di Sketches, il secondo
Ciao Red, perché non INTERVISTI FILIPPO MALATESTA? Era sempre al Roxy Bar e lui continua a fare canzoni bellissime.. Grazie
guitar playing is like a bird singing in a tree
Seems high here

Eh, this is a whit-e hol-e...
Is he drunk ?
no! (no drugs, no drinking) must have been those cappuccinos?? 😹😹

Brutta notizia.
You’re here because of Alvvays
Amo i Television ma Verlaine non mi è mai stato simpatico
RIP 🌹TOM VERLANE
Non può averlo abbandonato perché non ci è mai stato,un tale fuori di testa.....salvate Red Ronnie da se stesso.
