Found a clip from 1987 with Tom Verlaine on The Tube playing “Bomb”. Incredible treating of the guitar. The song is from the B-side of his album Flash Light from the same year.

Awesome sound he squeezes out of that Fender Jazzmaster. Very thick strings and a tape echo.

Oh my. I remember I saw him about the same year, then backed by Jimmy Ripp, Fred Smith, and Patti Smith’s drummer Jay Dee Daughtry. Here his up with a band from Scotland I’ve never seen.
