Customer Reviews Excellent Cale compilation At its foundation, this is 45 minutes of rhythmical countryish rock, performed by respectable musicians like Phil Collins, Geoff Muldaur, Chris Spedding and Phil Manzanera. A collection of some of the nastiest songs ever recorded. But projected over the top of that is the violent, perverted filth of John Cale, twisting every sweet harmony and country nuance into something truly unsettling. Brilliant! From the infamous opening lyric, through an eight minute ode to homicide, to Cale screaming "Fear is a man's best friend!" repeatedly while playing his guitar like a deranged chimp, this is a savage business. But a hugely enjoyable business too. The lyrics are smart, endlessly quotable, and often hilarious. Highy recommended. The album cover is my all-time favorite too.
