It's been just over 60 years since John Cale met Lou Reed and formed the Velvet Underground. Not only is he still performing, he's still really vital artist, as evinced by the fact that he's released full length albums in 2023 and 2024. Mercy from 2023 is especially impressive as I would rate it among his top five solo releases.
What, then, could be better in this bleak midwinter than a John Cale compilation? I tried to find every little obscure Cale nugget I could (and there are a lot of live performances), but I'm sure I missed more than a few. I'm posting Discs 1 and 2 today, and then I'll post Disc 3-5 over the next two months.
