Listener Bryan (the Professor):

Took me a second to find the reference, but there's a typescript document on early Television in the Richard Hell Papers in which Verlaine says about their early sounds: “I don’t know. It tells the story. Like ‘The Hunch’ by The Robert Charles Quintet or ‘Tornado’ by Dale Hawkins. Those cats could track it down." Different version of the song, I know, but I think of that whenever I hear "The Hunch."

Um, yeah. Both Richard Hell and Tom Verlaine had an older point of view., which explains a lot about the music they made.

Also true: I never heard or read TV namedrop a song that wasn't A+ unless he was explicitly dissing it. I used to have some playlists of songs I first heard because he mentioned them in interviews and those were some great mixes.

There's also a good chance the quote is actually by Hell because he wrote most of their early press stuff himself.

When Television first came to the West Coast and was interviewed on the radio, Tom Verlaine would NOT be pinned down. He said he liked Moby Grape and nothing else.

Tom did a guest DJ set on Gaylord Fields show that was excellent.

He was a funny guy.

the kingfish bridge is the baton rouge river bridge (on hwy 190) = which he built to not let tall ships up the river, thusly establishing BR as a major off-loading port.
