John Cale: M Fans
8. januar 2016
I’d been approached by an arts festival in Denmark to perform one of my albums in its entirety and they were really pushing for Music For a New Society. I was also planning to delve into the master tapes to re-issue [the long out of print) Music For a New Society so I thought the timing of the festival made good sense. I could open up the arrangements and see what I could do to make the songs more interesting in a live setting. Once I started, I found it liberating to change the perspective of the original characters of 33 years past. A serendipitous opportunity – perhaps I might find satisfaction in re-telling the story of an excruciating period I’d hoped to never revisit. In the end, I’m pleased to have M:FANS as a modern companion to the re-issued Music For… it wasn’t easy – brought out all sorts of buried demons in the process.
Også John Cale er på vej med nyt. Nemlig M:Fans, der er en slags reprise af hans gamle Music for at New Society, der samtidig bliver genoptrykt.
