JOHN CALE

Twenty years have passed since John Cale, along with Lou Reed, emerged with the Velvet Underground preaching a naked vision that had nothing in common with the era’s prevailing peace ’n’ love vibes. The Welsh madman, who came to America on a classical grant at the age of 21, has long since parted company with his original sidekick, embarking on a solo career that has encompassed producing (artists like Iggy Pop, Patti Smith, Nico, Squeeze and the Police), A&R (discovering Jonathan Richman, among others), avant/classical collaborations (with Terry Riley and the Royal Philharmonic) and performing with his own rock groups.

November 1, 1987
