Television Personalities They Could Have Been Bigger Than the Beatles LP

The third and final LP from this soon-to-become-legendary band. They Could Have Been Bigger Than The Beatles is a collection of outtakes spanning the whole TVP’s career, a great collection of wimp pop gems, neo-psychedelic favorites you’ve never heard, and two CREATION covers, “Makin’ Time” and “Painter Man.” The price is worth the admission into Daniel Treacy’s mind. Buy and make them “bigger.”

Television Personalities Three Wishes EP

The TV PERSONALITIES (a.k.a. the TIMES, the GIFTED CHILDREN, TEENAGE FILMSTARS, etc.) perform a truly charmed version of “Geoffrey Ingram” here, a perfect pop song from the HERMAN’S HERMITS camp of pop music. The wry human commentaries which made their early singles so disarming, however, are missing from “And Don’t the Kids Just Love It” and the mildly catchy, psychedelic “Three Wishes.” For TVP fans.
