In the fifth episode of this second series of the British Masters, our host John Doran speaks to pioneering musician John Cale, founding member of The Velvet Underground. John discusses Lou Reed, David Bowie, and his latest release M:FANS.
In John Doran's own words:
"Born in South Wales in 1942, after studying music at Goldsmiths, Cale moved to New York, in 1963. The following year he went on to found one of the greatest rock bands of all time with Lou Reed: The Velvet Underground. After leaving the group, Cale went on to record a large and challenging body of solo work, and now, a few weeks from his 74th birthday he has returned with one of his most radical and most enjoyable albums to date: M:FANS.'

I just watched him play today in Brooklyn before I went to work. I do not understand how one man can live on the literal cutting edge for 60 years… he has (imho) the single most enviable career…. and he’s just so cool and speaks in chill poetry. What an absolute champion. Hail

@jonesy2111 4 года назад

John Cale is on a tier of greatness all by himself. His career includes some of the best music ever recorded

@j.c7719 2 года назад

Absolutely. A real genius, I’d be truly starstruck if I ever met him. I mean from the electric viola on ‘Venus in Furs’, ‘Heroin’ and ‘The Black Angel’s Death Song’, to the sounds on ‘Lady Godiva’s Operation’ to those beautiful albums he did with Nico to ‘The Stooges’, ‘Paris 1919’, ‘Fear’ and ‘Horses’ and his soundtrack work. In the words of Lou Reed “his is a greatness to behold”.

One of the best interviews. Compelling from start to finish. Cale is simply one of the most talented and interesting musicians in music history. Much credit to John Doran for consistenly coming up with good questions and being one of the best interviewers.

I could be wrong but people don't seem to ask him about when he worked with nick drake, it would be really interesting to hear what he would have to say, from what i've heard it sounded like an interesting meeting.

Bryter Later was one album Joe Boyd and John both worked on for Nick. Theres a niche amount of information on that collaboration as you obviously know. Perhaps you might be the one to do a interview specifically about Johns work with Nicky?? Cheers

@saturnsabyss 4 месяца назад

Really?? Did not know Cale had anything to do with Drake. Also blew my mind when I found out he produced the original mixes for the first Stooges album. Lot of surprising connections in the music industry back then.

I only found out John Cale was Welsh this year after reading James Young's book about Nico. I always assumed he was American for some reason.

@EclecticoIconoclasta 8 лет назад

+levoldunom I guess you have not listened to the VU song "The Gift" where he recites a poem and clearly there you can notice he is not american

@levoldunom 8 лет назад

And clearly you can a take any song from a band's catalogue where someone is singing with an accent at face value to deduct their nationality, right? Of course I have listened to "The Gift". But John was not one of VU's more prominent singers therefore one was never really reading such facts throughtout the years in written form about the band. And if you get something out of this interview is that he had a difficult past there, these aren't details you normally read about.

@adanacman666 7 лет назад

whats funny is i remember quite a few people back in the day, had no clue, who VU were ,and when their music was played, they hated it, or payed very little attention, or had no clue, who it even was,but the more rolling stone magazine,and these so called music critics,told people how great they were,as time went on, well, now most of those people act like they were there rite from the start

@kevinguziec2497 5 лет назад

Most folks who listen to Vu weren't born yet when the band was active. Of course people are gonna pick up on it and fall in love hard with it. And who cares where they hear about a band from. Rolling Stone mag introduced me to quite a few bands that I'm rather fond of. I don't know though, my opinion and my thoughts just matter to myself
