Tom Verlaine Dead at 73 on Saturday night after ‘a brief illness’

 Tom Verlaine, Singer and Guitarist of Punk Legends Television, Dead at 73


Verlaine was born in New Jersey as Thomas Miller, but chose his stage name in honour of the French symbolist author Paul Verlaine. The band had more success in Britain than in the US, splitting in 1978. After the split, Verlained released a string of solo albums, with his song ‘Kingdom Come’.

“This is a time when all seemed possible,” Patti Smith wrote in a tribute on Instagram, which included a photo of her and Verlaine.
