    "comment": "Happy Birthday to drummer Billy Ficca, founding member of Television and The Waitresses!  He celebrates his 76th birthday today.\n\nIn the years leading up to the album, Television had become a prominent act on the New York music scene and generated interest from a number of record labels, eventually signing a record deal with Elektra.\n\nThe group rehearsed extensively in preparation for Marquee Moon before recording it at A & R Recording in September 1976.\n\nIt was produced by the band's frontman Tom Verlaine and sound engineer Andy Johns. For Marquee Moon, Verlaine and fellow guitarist Richard Lloyd abandoned contemporary punk rock's power chords in favor of rock and jazz-inspired interplay, melodic lines, and counter-melodies.\n\nThe resulting music is largely hook-driven with complex instrumental parts (particularly on longer tracks such as \"Marquee Moon\"), while evoking themes of adolescence, discovery, and transcendence through imagery in urban, pastoral, and nocturnal modes, including references to the geography of Lower Manhattan.\n\nInfluenced by Bohemian and French poetry, Verlaine's lyrics also feature puns and double entendres intended to give the songs an impressionistic quality in describing his perception of an experience. https://bit.ly/3Zkr27t",
