A born ad-man helped invent punk; our gain.Richard Hell was bounced out of Television early on, which was best for both parties. His coarse yelps of teen poetry shared little with that great band's virtuosic guitar solos and pinpoint musicality. Rather, Hell's flair lied in sloganeering: "I'm a member of the blank generation!" "Love comes in spurts!" Surely, the world lost a fine ad-man when he turned to music. Like love, Hell's career is best surveyed in spurts, with his most interesting work spread across different bands and eras — hence this two-disc collection of studio work and bootlegs, including songs from the Voivoids, the Heartbreakers and Hell's infrequent modern-day excursions into music.by Jay Ruttenberg
