Tom Verlaine — Souvenir From A Dream: The Tom Verlaine Albums (1979-84) 

4LP clear vinyl box set featuring the first four acclaimed solo albums by the former Television frontman!

Souvenir From A Dream: The Tom Verlaine Albums (1979-1984) is a 4LP, crystal-clear vinyl box set that collects the first four acclaimed solo albums by the former Television frontman. Originally released as a Record Store Day exclusive, it features the records Tom Verlaine, Dreamtime, Words from the Front, and Cover.

• Tom Verlaine (1979): His self-titled solo debut, often considered his best post-Television work. It features standout tracks like "Kingdom Come," "Red Leaves," and the title track, "Souvenir From A Dream."

• Dreamtime (1981): His sophomore solo effort, highlighting his signature angular guitar riffs and poetic lyricism.

• Words from the Front (1982): A sharp, dynamic continuation of his solo tenure, expanding on his art-punk and new wave roots.

• Cover (1984): The final album in the set, leaning into slicker, early-'80s production while maintaining his intricate fretwork.

Tom's recent passing has put focus back on these albums with an increased appreciation. These albums have not been available on LP since they were originally released.
