I’ll keep chipping away at it.
The results from now on for the 70’s may be influenced heavily by Mrs. K.

I was about to have a listen to Television’s Marquee Moon, but then I read this:
Its title track is over 10 minutes long. Its lengthy and numerous guitar solos are individually credited in its liner notes
Skip.
