Television - 'Poor Circulation' Live Performance from The Piccadilly Inn, 1975

Venue: Piccadilly Inn Location: Cleveland, Ohio, United States Date: July 25, 1975

In July 1975, when Television performed at The Piccadilly Inn in Cleveland, they were just a few months post the release of their groundbreaking debut album, *Marquee Moon*. This record, released in February of that year, would go on to become a seminal piece in the punk and art rock movement. It’s fascinating to think about this time: the band was still honing their sound, melding intricate guitar lines with poetic lyrics, and drawing in audiences with their live performances. The song performed, "Poor Circulation," adds a captivating layer to their story, illustrating the creative energy that thrived during their early days. Even though this particular track wasn’t officially released, it captures the raw spirit of their live shows. Interestingly, it foreshadows the craftsmanship evident in later works, like the 1981 follow-up, *Adventure*. This live performance reveals just how vital those early gigs were in shaping Television’s influential legacy.
