John Cale/Netherlands 2004

From the 2004 European solo tour, a complete recording of the December 9th Paradiso performance in Amsterdam, Netherlands, with a stereo soundboard sound source from the FM on-air master. First of all, this concert, which is mostly played by piano, has a set list consisting only of songs from his solo albums, from 1970 after the disbandment of VU to the album “Hobo Sapiens” released the previous year. A cool and beautiful staging was exhibited from beginning to end. A must-listen item for fans, full of Cale’s unique world view, which can be said to be the culmination of his solo activities.
