I am OH YES, JOHN CALE! And I love it. This is my output. This tumblr is named "OH YES, JOHN CALE!" because I had never heard John Cale swear, so the obvious "F*CK YEAH JOHN CALE" did not seem appropriate. I find it interesting and very important to keep "memories" alive. In photography, beautifully crappy und blurred VHS-screenshot-gifs I make, or the most beautiful of them all: the stories. If possible, I name the photographers and sources. If you come across a photo you took, please let me know. If you are John Cale or any of the persons in the postings and for some reason would like them to be kept personal, let me know. Thank you.

"We’ve detected adult content on your Tumblr" - Weeeeeellllllll I do not really agree, and thankfully tumblr has reviewed my appeal. So you lovely folks and Cale-Heads can still enjoy Black-eyed John Cale.

Here’s a version of Antarctica starts here I have not seen before:

Currently mildly obsessed with “Antarctica starts here”.
Her schoolhouse mind has windows now Where handsome creatures come to watch
Which one is your favourite version?
The Paris 1919 version is, of course, rather soft, but rather calming. The 1983 live version is beautiful. Gotta compare the Rockpalast version and the Hamburg bootleg which I repeatedly keep raving about.

Bernstein and Cale
Ever wondered how Leonard Bernstein “influenced” John Cale?
"When Cale finally gets an opportunity to perform a piece of his own at Tanglewood he shocks his audience by pulling an axe from a piano and pounding it into the middle of a table."
Read the short piece regarding the 1960s, you’ll meet some folks you have met on OH YES, JOHN CALE! before, like Lou Reed, Sterling Morrison, Moe Tucker, Andy Warhol, La Monte Young and The Velvet Underground, of course.
