Nella ore successive alla scomparsa del leader dei Television, in tanti, da Patti Smith ai Rem ai Bauhaus, l’hanno ricordato sui social. Abbiamo raccolto alcuni post:
Tom Verlaine…first heard on Patti Smith’s “Hey Joe” and “Break It Up”, and Television’s “Little Johnny Jewel”, the most incredible, otherwordly guitar playing. Jazzblown, fantastic, inspired. Never surpassed, never equalled except by himself. #TomVerlaine

I met Tom Verlaine when he just arrived in NYC I guess ’72. He had long hair and came to my apartment with an acoustic guitar and played some songs he’d written. Both Tom and Richard Hell have told me that I auditioned for the Neon Boys but I don’t remember.

This band would probably exist – but would surely not sound the way it does without Tom Verlaine.
