If John Cale's 1970 debut solo album does not constitute as a forgotten masterpiece, than I don't know what does. Vintage Violence is the sound of John Cale rejecting the avant-garde stylings of his work with The Velvet Underground (for the most part). This is John Cale sitting down and writing pop songs. Incredible pop songs. This is no understatement.The albums busts out of the gate with the ...

Leonard Cohen's masterpiece is my favorite song of all time. I know people are crazy over Jeff Buckley's version, and Rufus Wainwright's also has many fans. While I appreciate both of the aforementioned versions of this song, my absolute favorite is this one, by John Cale. I enjoy John in all of his forms - the man is brilliantly idiosyncratic and eclectic, and each album is drastically diff...

John Cale rose to fame with the Velvet Underground. As a solo artist he's been responsible for a cerebral & challenging body of work, and so his career progresses without such trappings as radio play or chart action. Yet his fans are many & very devoted. So....enjoy the music, smile at the picture, & have a grand Saturday Fear Is A Man's Best FriendParis 1919

Anyone familiar with John Cale's _ouevre_ will be surprised by this track. I like John Cale, his music is usually dark and dense, with subject matter to match. Lou Reed has had his moments, but my favorite **Velvet Underground** alum is definitely J. C.His +Paris 1999+ (live) is a must have in any collection of Dark rock n roll.So I was surprised when I heard him doin' this, he sounds like an o...

John Cale's post Velvet Underground work is a maddening hodge-podge of brilliance & bullshit. He can be the most dynamic performer you've seen, stirring dark feelings in our collective psyche, exciting in a primitive way, on a gut level. Or he can be a self-indulgent sop, arrogant & rude, sloppy & uncaring. Sometimes the histrionics were over the top. Ah, but on a good night, solo or wit...
