The eponymously named third and final studio album from Television was recorded and released in 1992, fourteen years after the band's sophomore album Adventure (and subsequent breakup) in 1978. In a decade kicked off by alt-rock guitar albums, the band had regrouped in early 1992 with a new sonic identity. Released later in the year, Television was completely unexpected and unexpectedly wonderful. 'Call Mr Lee', '1880 Or So In World' and 'No Glamour For Willi' rank among the best of the band's material, and the guitar interplay between Tom Verlaine and Richard Lloyd was as mesmerizing and unique as ever.Television was met with met with high critical praise from The Village Voice Incha droll, warm-hearted, sophisticated, cryptic, jazzy yet unjazzlike, they sound like nothing else-except, just a little, like old TelevisionInch, NY Times referred to the album as Inchscaled-down Television with exquisite design detailsInch, and Rolling Stone's David Fricke said it was worth the fifteen year wait, citing the albums Inchcelebration of the lost virtues of precision, emotional depth and sonic elegance.Inch Television toured the record into 1993, then would again disappear from the public eye.Upon it's worldwide by Capitol Records, Television vinyl was not available commercially in North America, it was never pressed past the white tag promo version, so fans had to do with the CD (or cassette) or source a pricey import. This 2024 version is being released on the band's imprint Ohoo Records, and has been remastered for vinyl by longtime Tom Verlaine musical collaborator Patrick Derivaz, who was an assistant engineer on these sessions.
