John Cale: 'black Acetate': Watch & Listen



Legendary John Cale released his latest album, black Acetate, last week. You can give it a listen on his home page, or you can watch a video for "Perfect" (below), the eighth track on the new disc. If you've dismissed Cale as that old guy who used to be in the Velvet Underground... don't(he is also acclaimed as a producer of artists such as Patti Smith, Stooges, Squeeze, the Modern Lovers and many more). He may be 63, but his artistic fire is a dangerous as ever. Cale is as vital and disturbing an artist as Tom Waits and will have an impressive back catatlog to choose from when he comes to your town with the black Acetate tour.
