Lloyd, Richard - Radiant Monkey (CD) | Mint (M) Mint (M)

Richard Lloyd is an American guitarist, singer and songwriter, best known as a founding member of the rock band Television. After Television first disbanded in 1978, Lloyd released one album for Elektra Records called Alchemy. During his solo career, as a guitarist and session musician he has worked with various artists in the music industry, including Matthew Sweet, John Doe (of X), and Stephan Eicher. He acted as producer and recording engineer as well as a member of the band Rocket From The Tombs, entitled Rocket Redux, which was released on Smog Veil Records. He has now released six solo albums. Alchemy in 1979, Field of Fire in 1986 (re released in 2007 with an additional disc of music), his live disc Real Time in 1987 (recorded at CBGB) and The Cover Doesn't Matter in 2001. The Radiant Monkey was originally released on Parasol Records in late 2007. The CD features Lloyd playing everything but the drums (manned by session drummer Chris Purdy and, on one track, Television's Billy Ficca). Here is it being reissued on Richard's own Sufimonkey Records along with the rest of his solo catalog coming out in late 2017 and early 2018. In addition, Richard has published his first memoir entitled "Everything Is Combustible" (Beech Hill Publishing) which will be released on conjunction with the catalog reissues and his 66th birthday in October 2017.
