Paris 1919 - Deluxe Remastered Edition (Vinyle)John Cale was critical of his solo debut, Vintage Violence (1970), seeing it as a masked version of himself. His artistic range became clearer on his next two Reprise albums: The Academy in Peril (1972), an experimental classical work, and Paris 1919 (1973), a refined take on accessible yet anxious song craft. Reissuing these albums together highlights Cales fearless creativity at a time when he saw music as an open canvas.
