Tv Party – Premier Episode

Glenn O'Brien was in the middle of the Punk scene, writing a column for Andy Warhol's Interview Magazine. One night Glenn was a guest on a cable show "If I Can't Dance You Can Keep Your Revolution". The next day he was approached by friends and strangers alike who had caught the show - so he started his own. His best pal Chris Stein, Blondie's guitarist, became co-host and Walter Steding, Warhol's painting assistant, became leader of the TV Party Orchestra. This was the premiere show. Regulars included Jean-Michel Basquiat, Fab Five Freddie, Deborah Harry, John Lurie and Tim Wright of DNA. Extras: John Lurie, David Walter McDermott, Kare Simon & Mick Jones of the Clash.
