 Television - Marquee Moon, Adventure - Rhino / Elektra Records
Although they only made two albums, not including the third issue waaaay after the fact of the first two, they still resonate with many who have come into contact with their brand of melodic post punk.
Adventure takes advantage of the freedom that was essential to the growth of this musical era while trying to be a step above Marquee Moon.
Instrumentally, Adventure shows their ability to incorporate their learned knowledge gained during the year since the release of Marquee Moon.

 Adventure - BONUS TRACKS - Television - Song Listings   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
Though it is ironically not as adventurous as its predecessor, time has treated it well; it may be softer and more produced than Marquee Moon, but Tom Verlaine's songwriting remained sharply intelligent and his guitar interplay with Richard Lloyd is one of the wonders of rock, so it's always nice to hear.
The most noteworthy addition is "Adventure," a would-be title track that fits nicely into the album, while the early version of "Glory" is a bit rougher, but essentially the same.
All in all, this reissue of Adventure is more than worthwhile for the dedicated cult of Television -- the packaging is good, the sound is great, and the extras are interesting, all adding value to an already fine album.

 Janus Stark - Great Adventure Cigar | Album Review @ Music-Critic.com : the source for music reviews, interviews, ...
With Great Adventure Cigar, now you too can find out what it would be like if Prodigy's live guitarist fronted a band, because, amazingly enough, Gizz Butt is Prodigy's live guitarist.
Gizz Butt's vocals are the part of the album I had the biggest problem with.
Now, the changes were nothing drastic, but just enough so as to stop the album from sounding overly repetitious.

 Adventure (album) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Adventure is the follow up album to Television's critically acclaimed debut, Marquee Moon.
Upon its release, the album fared worse than its predecessor in the United States but entered the charts at #7 in the Britain.
Where Marquee Moon is a raw and straightforward album, Adventure has softer and more layered sound with added nuances, such as keyboard textures and back-up vocals.

 Amazon.co.uk: The American Adventure: Music: The Electric Soft Parade   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
The Electric Soft Parade's second album The American Adventure--the follow-up to the Mercury Prize-nominated Holes in the Wall--is an in-depth study into the widescreen possibilities of indie rock.
The title track is a vast and desolate soundscape of eerie echoes, unnerving bleeps, deranged strings and circular vocals, punctuated by pockets of the dreamiest of tunes, while "Chaos" and "Existing" are feather-light lullabies floating on twinkling xylophones, harps and an unspoken menace.
Try again without trying to fit it in with Holes in the wall, while that is an amazing album and a great sound, it is different, but that is the joy of their music, it evolves.

 Brainticket : Adventure - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
Released in 1980 but apparently recorded at some point in the mid-'70s, before Brainticket disbanded, Adventure sounds like the results of an all-night jam session caught on tape and sliced somewhat arbitrarily into songs.
The middle track, "Machinery (Analog)," is as cacophonous as an overloaded factory line and by far the noisiest track of the lot, while the fifth and final track, the negligible three-minute throwaway "Robotika," sounds like a spliced-out fragment of some lost detour from the two-part title track.
Neither as tiresome as early Amon Düül records could often be, nor as sublime as some of Brainticket's earlier work, Adventure is of interest to experimentally minded Krautrock fans, but those disinterested in 20-minute instrumental improvisations should steer clear.

 Action-adventure game - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The term "action adventure" itself has become more generalised since its introduction, and can now be used to refer to virtually any game which combines elements of reflex-based play with some element of problem-solving.
In action-adventure games, while reflex-based actions are required (often revolving around combat or the avoidance thereof), the gameplay still follows a number of adventure game genre tropes (gathering items, exploration of and interaction with one's environment, and puzzle-solving).
They are distinct from graphic adventures, which sometimes have free-moving central characters, but also wider variety of commands and fewer or no arcade game elements and are distinct too from text adventures, characterized by many different commands introduced by the user via a complex text parser and no free-moving character.

 And the Sound of Adventure, MP3 Album Music Download at eMusic
Bill Ding's debut LP, And the Sound of Adventure, is a clunky, low-fi triumph of John Hughes III (son of brat pack film auteur John Hughes) and cohort Dan Snazelle filled with moments of sharp musical brilliance.
And the Sound of Adventure creeps up quickly with a hard dose of cynicism reflected in Hughes' subtle and understated vocals.
At times heavy and hard-rocking, though always heady and mood-driven, Bill Ding's And the Sound of Adventure is a tremendous rock interpretation of Chicago's heavily jazz-informed downtown scene.

 Adventure by Television CD
Television's second album arrived a year after the band's remarkable 1977 debut, MARQUEE MOON.
The eight songs again feature the intertwining guitars of Tom Verlaine and Richard Lloyd in a way that recalls both the glory days of San Francisco ballroom bands and the finesse of shimmering pop music.
Television's music shows none of the dulling effects of age, and its first two albums are essential.

 Adventure - Television - Music Reviews   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
Television's groundbreaking first album, Marquee Moon, was as close to a perfect debut as any band made in the 1970s, and in many respects it would have been all but impossible for the band to top it.
One senses that Television knew this, because Adventure seems designed to avoid the comparisons...

Almost all of their recordings are sonically of the highest quality (Copland: Music of America won a Grammy for best engineering), but all too often in recent years the releases have not met the standard of this album.
Arrangers that don't begin to care what the composer's intent was or tacking on pre-fab endings are the worst offenders, but most of the selections here meet or exceed the quality of the original soundtracks.
A 20-bit digital recording that is perfect for surround-sound systems, "The Great Fantasy Adventure Album" is a wonder for fans of the sci-fi/fantasy film genre.
