    MONUMENTAL !

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Nov 29, 2002

    Fourty-five minutes and fifty-four seconds of pure genius . This is not only Television's best album , but one of the most accomplished and successful albums ever . The guitar playing is innovative , refined , bold , ballsy , cataclysmic , epileptic ...... and totally addictive . The bass is subtle , at times subdued , and really pushes the rest forward . Tom's singing is way ahead of it's time and will go incredible lenghts to convey the poetry . This stuff is oh so gooooooood ! Read more Less

    A REFERENCE ALBUM . . .

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Nov 24, 2002

    This album stands all the way up there among my all-time favorites and I do have quite ecclectic tastes . Venus , Marquee Moon and Elevation are some of this crown's shiniest jewels . I could easily understand someone not liking something so unique a...nd different ( the only term that comes to my mind for describing the guitar playing at times would be "angular") , yes , the often syncopated beat sometimes is hard on the nervous system and Tom Verlaine's voice ... well , a category of its own ... But these are all the elements that make the sound of Television so UNIQUE , and indifference to this would signifie a lack of taste (right,Skinnydaisy ?) This album truly is a timestone . Get it by ANY means ! Read more Less

    awesome album

    This album is so far ahead of its time. Buy it or download it before you do anything else. I can guarantee you will be impressed, and if your not, you hate good music.

    Unbelieveable Album - Download it soon

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Jan 27, 2001

    Such a great innovative sound from the 70's. To hear it today it still remains very fresh. You could release this album right now and still get rave reviews, a must for your Napster collection/

    amazing

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  May 2, 2000

    Television were a shock when they appeared on the New York underground scene in the 70s, but they would be seen as complete "aliens" anywhere, anytime. Tom's songwriting talent is impressive, all the songs impress by the way they're obvious and stru...ctured at the same time. What to say about guitar solos? While soloing now sounds boring to our jaded ears, Tom and Richard are gods from another planet. I'm writing this and I'm a kid from the 'grunge generation'. Read more Less

    This album could've been a hit in the 50's,the60's,it was in the 70's,and it would've gone over well if released in the 80's or 90's!To me this album would fit in any time frame,good in a classic sense and though released in the 70's still sounds ve...ry modern.Very tuneful and fun to listen to anytime Read more Less
