Way back on this day in 1977, a new CBGB-created template for guitar heroism was born.
Think you 🙏🏻 to the late Tom Verlaine and Richard Lloyd for showing us that not all guitar gods wear capes or “I’m working hard over here” faces.
Cool art is possible without bullshit macho posturing.
This song and album is ground zero for me.
Six-string midnight mass. 🕯️
“I remember how the darkness doubled.”
About as New York City an album as I can conjure.
