    This is the You Tube Cube With Teeth and I get no money for doing this but, I'm devoting my life to getting the world to say Hello to John The best and most underrated musician ever 63 some odd albums International tours Bob Dylan and Frank Sinatra don't even come close They are very different from Cale but, Cale has something for nearly everyone or anyone Hello again John My heart is wide open I make frisbees out of records that are broken Love, William

    29:00 - this is actually also true for digital audio, though. And this is just because the human ear can't hear the same exact thing twice - the movement of the head, for instance. That would affect what is heard, even if the audio signal itself remains entirely consistent.

      for you to be on a John Cale video feedback enquiring about him is pretty genuine. Back in '97 (I think) I met Joe Boyd after a talk he gave at the Barbican, London . Such a warm guy. (he did all he really could). Nick wasn't a star, glory hunter, or anyone really who should be on stage. Thats something else. And there's many elements that make his recordings special (as I know you know). And you may also think that quality will also somehow float to the top in 2021. Like John Cale says, over-saturation. Everything is good. And thats where this bullshit 'so underrated' starts to flood in. If you want something unique, something poetic, and a someone who has disappeared, check out Florian Lunaire. Now that's another quiet genius.

    I've always had a soft spot for Liam Boyle. Awaydays to me wasn't a football film, it was an allegory of a struggling youth having to deal with the fact that being outside the box wasn't accepted yet. He painted such a good picture in that movie where I actually feel like you could bump into him on the street. He's amazing.
