Happy Birthday to the late, great Robert Quine, guitarist for Richard Hell and the Voidoids 1977 album ‘Blank Generation’. Quine worked with Lou Reed, Brian Eno, Lloyd Cole, They Might Be Giants, and was featured on Matthew Sweet’s breakthrough 90s albums, born 12/30/1945. #RobertQuine #RockHonorRoll

Matthew Sweet’s early-90s hit, Girlfriend, is more hit-and-miss than people like to admit, but when it connects, it’s wonderful. “I’ve Been Waiting” remains a classic, seemingly effortless piece of folk pop craftsmanship, while “Evangeline” and the title track aren’t afraid to let Robert Quine whip out the electric guitars and get knotty in raucous improvisations. If you dig this album, I heartily recommend it’s unofficial sister album, Lloyd Cole’s self-titled solo debut, made around the same time with most of the same players and production personnel—including Sweet on backing vocals and bass.

When I started out playing guitar I took lessons at the local guitar store. The owner/teacher were mean. I didn't learn shit because they taught me the Mel Bay method. #FuckMelBay from his stupid 🎸 books. When I went to other stores I'd ask to try out a guitar and after I was done I'd hear "why don't you come back when you learn how to play guitar." Who says that to a 12 year old? Well all these stores have been replaced by Guitar Center, Sam Ash and eBay. There's barely any guitar stores left in NYC but one that will remain around a long while is @carminestreetguitars. When I went there in the past #RobertQuine, lead guitarist for Richard Hell and the Voidoids, was always hanging out there. And Robert Quine isn't just my favorite punk guitarist, he's my favorite lead 🎸 player PERIOD, just listen to the solo on Matthew Sweet's song 'Girlfriend' which Guitar Hero ended up using. So when I go to Carmine Street Guitars I always think of the greatest guitar soloist ever. Now when I go in there's a friend of mine, Cindy, of @cindyguitars, who is a solid guitar technician who I only trust with my guitars. I used to use @SarahFMichaels until she moved to Baltimore to start a wonderful family with her partner so I was glad to have found another guitar tech, Cindy who will be adding a paisley paint job on my Washburn strat. Back when I started out everyone used to go to #CarloGreco, the best at fixing up your guitar at the most reasobable price. Well now I have Cindy to take all my guitars to. Thank you #RickKelly, for not only making guitars but actual works of art and for taking Cindy under your wing. Now there is a documentary about the coolest, greatest guitar store of them all and I want to give it a shout-out to their documentary film and for giving us guitarists an option to go to besides Sam Ash or Guitar Center. #CarmineStreetGuitars #CindyGuitars #GuitarStores #NYC (at Cindy Guitars) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bz-zlXbjixB/?igshid=a5sfxx1xaviw

#blankgeneration #richardhellandthevoidoids #richardhell #robertquine #ivanjulian #marcbell #richardgottehrer #donhunerburg #jerrysolomon #robfreeman Art Direction #johngillespie & Richard #photography: #robertabayley #gregcalbi - Richard Hell and The Voidoids made one brilliant record This is one of the most influential punk rock edgy record of The 70’s!! Richard was once a member of Television . This record reminds me so much of Television and Richard was once a member of #johnnythundersandtheheartbreakers - his punk rock credibility is through the roof. This band has a future #ramone with Marc , #Ivan played with everyone in the NYC punk scene and played with #theclash and Robert played with #loureed #material #tomwaits #matthewsweet jus to name a few. I remember so well our 2 nights of Richard Hell in #detroit, summer of 79… too much junkie business.. however this masterpiece brilliantly produced by Richard Gotteher who has made so many amazing records- this album contains. All great songs #lovecomesinspurts #blankgeneration #downattherockandrollclub #liarsbeware and a great cover of Creedence Clearwater’s #walkonthewater Glad Richard made this record and whilst mixing the record - the New York famous blackout happed in 77 - hmmm Enjoy!

This record was actually a kick in the ass for me... I was in the midst of the songwriting/music publishing world and trying to get my producing chops up as well. And when this record came🙃 out I was like 😳I'm not even close to being this good 😩🤷🏼‍♂️🙃revisiting easily one of my favorite albums from 1991🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟and my favorite track is #Evangeline. Pretty sure I played that song for about 3 days straight... no, I'm not kidding... for 3 days straight constantly 🙆🏼‍♂️🖤☠️💞#nowplaying #MatthewSweet #Girlfriend #1991 #ZooEntertainment #CD #CDcollection #CDcollector #CDhoarder #nowspinning #inmycdplayer #RichardLloyd #RicMenck #RobertQuine #GregLeisz #FredMaher #LloydCole

I so loved every thing about this intellectual pop album as best described by Sounds “ If you only indulge yourself in one smooth, non-alternative, chain store pop album this year, make it this!” This album had it all, Aretha Franklin’s producer Arif Mardin and the player’s players that made this mashup masterpiece of pop, hip hop and alternative and it all works splendidly! Song for song #absolute #woodbeez and my fave a little knowledge - So glad the folks released this amazingly brilliant record on vinyl Enjoy (at Hollywood Hills) https://www.instagram.com/p/CSdFetBFpNZ/?utm_medium=tumblr
