Rec. info:
low gen. audience recording, most likely pulled off the master tape. Amazing quality!!! Unknown lineage, unknown equipment used. Most likely the then common AIWA CM30 mics into
a Sony Walkman recorder, but who knows???
This cassette (TDK SA90) -> playback on Harman Kardon CD 491 -> Audio recorder -> WAV 16/44 -> Audacity (edit, no remaster) -> WAV 16/44 -> TLH8 -> FLAC -> DIME ->
YOUR EARS AND MIND...in a heartbreak hotel with Carmen Miranda...

Oh, well, how many times I've forced SEETHELIGHT7 to give me access to his collection of JOHN CALE recordings, and how many times I've failed. But at least, here are a few ones
found to my delighted surprise in the new box of tapes. Though there are so many real cool recordings in the box, I'm not the kind of guy bothering too much about what's next,
what to do at this time or the other. To say the truth, I've never been at all afficinated by THE VELVET UNDERGROUND, neither do I like their records, most of their solo outputs.
Maybe I'm a bit late born, but I've been a music lover since age of 6 or 7. And - probably I didn't dig it. But Mr. Cale's solo work always struck my mind, beginning with the great
"Fear" album, reaching hightest apprechiation with "Sabotage" (remember "Captain Hook", still gives me shivers), and "Honi Soit", with "Strange times over Casablanca" remaining one
of my all time favourites. Mr. Cale always went onto his own way, and from musical view only, he's a chameleon, sucking in all types of musical evolution. I remember a particular gig in
Muenster in 1993, where I was about to think, he was touring with a band (no internet those daze...), and I found myself depressed facing a solo show, but after the first 2-3
definitely strange occurances of songs, I was into it. And it really proved, what a great musician he is. I hope, you will enjoy this, and open your mind to the fantastic moods of
Mr. Cale. SB.
