Description
Originally released in October 1974, 'Fear' is an incredibly important album in the 50+ year career of John Cale. The tense, clipped 'Fear Is a Man's Best Friend' harks back to the work of the Velvet Underground, as does the standout, 'Gun', eight minutes of overdriven bleakness with Brian Eno duelling with Cale's guitar solo on synthesisers. Much is rightly made of these tracks, but there is also the sweetness of the gospel of 'Buffalo Ballet' and the Beach Boys homage 'The Man Who Couldn't Afford to Orgy'. The pretty, semi-autobiographical 'Ship of Fools' offers listeners an opportunity to hear Cale reference the South Wales city of Swansea, its seaside suburb, Mumbles and his home village of Garnant.
