not in white linen, but cale's performance was awesome.

Johns a true multi instrumentalist. He lived the rock'n'roll life style and managed to clean up and get his head back on. It's not easy and some can some can't. Glad he did.

He dotexed in 86?

This era of cale is a giant blindspot for me. When I think of him, i hear the early 70s records, and then I remember the contemporary stuff from Nookiewood onward. I don't know any of these songs 15 mins in. Hypnotic devo esque stuff. I love it. Didn't notice until 3 songs in that he was playing a flying v. lol

Most songs he's performing here are from his 1984 album Caribbean Sunset, the critics slated it, but imo it's a great post-punk album. Here's the link: kzread.info/dash/bejne/pn5hsqtribfVabQ.html

Great Talent Band 🎸🎹👏👏👌👋

John Cale lead vocals , piano , guitar ; Dave Young guitar, vocals ; Andy Heerman bass & vocals ; Dave Lichtenstein drums. It is the same band of the album Caribbean sunset of the same year (1984). Splendid rock concert , very Velvet Underground drums & mood , in my opinion . John is great : voice, guitar, piano just fantastic. Thank you for posting !

The guitarist is good but I couldn't find more into about him. He played on the Caribbean Sunset album. The guy on his recent live record is good too and there's not a lot of info on him either. Cale finds these great unknown guitarists.

John Cale is the best musician ever You have to be one with the galaxy to understand that

You can really hear here how his lifestyle had taken a toll on his normally rich and expressive voice (and he looks pretty rough as well) - it's really great that he cleaned up and managed to get back his wonderful vocal abilities

Fully agree, otherwise he possibly wouldn't be around with us any more. But on the other hand I wouldn't want to miss those outrageous gigs from him, some extraordinary performances back then. Have you watched his 1983 Rockpalast gig, which I have also uploaded: kzread.info/dash/bejne/gqlly89recSTerQ.html Cale solo on piano and accustic guitar, a far more cleaned up performance. Possibly he was coked up to the ears, an amazingly intense and atmospheric performance from the Welsh Wizard.

1 of the best live convets, ever.

thank you, ForARide, this is ...my fave live concert. it has everything, rough,clever,stupid. rock

Love this. Great performance! Those kids who gave the finger to the camara made me laugh. Great band and John is on fire.

Watched it live on TV at the time, in my student dorm, was rather late (2:30 am I think, 1 hour wait or the like). Never got a better Rockpalast night...

"Out of it"? In what way, and please cite your authoritative sources.

Wow what a gem. I’ve been listening to him since I first heard him with Terry Riley. A brilliant contribution to modern music. This is a great concert.

Many thanks for placing this here. Great performance and who sitting in front of the TV taping it or watching John Cale live could forget the memorable end of the concert. Simply magic!

Yes!!!!!!!!!!

Concert sublime.

Such a great performance, such a great band. Thank u for posting this.

I knew Mr Cale's work back then, never saw him live before. Watching this on German live TV was spectacular. Did he make up Autobiography on the spot? Brilliant!

Well at least James Murphy got Cale do a cover of his All My Friends, where he also plays bass:kzread.info/dash/bejne/f4R_1daBidG8gpM.html

It’s a brilliant performance, even though John is definitely regretful that there’s a visual document of it. He watches a bit of this at the beginning of the “Heroin, Wales, and Me” documentary, and he labels this performance as “hard to watch.“

Rockn rolly, forA ride👍!

John Cale Godfather OG 35%THC delta 9 and I do believe the journey did her well

I saw him in '83 in Werchter and that concert was even better then this, but don't get me wrong......this is a great performance.....for a long time a had a cassette with the Werchter gig....played it and played it until it was ruined....so i watch this concert a couple of times a year......

it's such a shame what KZread does to the audio !!!!

Know cal long time... 1980.....

Personally, this is the solo John Cale style I prefer-- the rougher rock sound from 1974 to 1984.
