Fear
The Welsh Ex-velvet Underground Man's Debut for Island Records was a Critical Fave at the Time of It's Release in 1974, as Nary a Reviewer Worth his Ears Gave it Less Than Four Stars. Cale is Supported Prominently by Roxy Music Members Phil Manzanera, Andy Mackay and Brian Eno (With Whom He Would Team Some 16 Years Later on "Wrong Way Up"), the Late Fred "Sonic" Smith and his Favorite Bird at the Time, Judy Nylon. Highlights Include the Beach Boys-esque "The Man who Couldn't Afford to Orgy" and "Ship of Fools".
