I was talking with a Polish guy I work with today. He is going home for Christmas tomorrow. I thought of the amount of people who will be leaving Ireland soon to find work abroad, will there be ships of fools coming home for Christmas ?
That´s why I believe that Cale is one of the greatest musicians of our times.
His musical versitality is unmatched. And if you consider his influence in Rock compared to his fame, you get to the conclusion that he is possibly the most underrated artist arround these days!
Seems to share the same fate as Van Gogh in his lifetime, with the talent and creativity of a Pablo Picasso.
I do like to take the piss out of people who pretend to know about art ( I know fuck all about it, which is fine ) by saying "Picasso ? sure he couldn't even paint faces properly." and the look of disgust is priceless.
King Brilliant !

True. Also, the fact is, Cale has done so much amazing things since the 60s, that it's hard to imagine that it was all the same guy.

@oYoYebutu I still don't get it. The reference I made was to the Cale song "Pablo Picasso".

@thespecter2 I doubt Picasso was never called the a-word. (I actually bet some still call him that.)

@friginhell123 My point: great song.
P.S. He is the first great artist to be hugely successful while still alive.

@thespecter2 It's actually a Jonathan Richman song, though I agree that Cale's is the best version.
