A few days ago I rediscovered John Cale's third solo album after not having listened to it for years. It's probably well known that Cale was a founding member of the Velvet Underground. But that he had a classical training as a musician is probably less so.
He has always tried to explore the boundaries of music. His musical spectrum ranges from the deconstruction of listening habits to avant-garde pop. And he achieved the latter with Paris 1919. Rarely has his music been so catchy and fascinating. A timeless masterpiece that in many places is reminiscent of Nick Drake's Bryter Layter, which was produced by Cale at almost the same time.
One of my favourite albums of all time
