Autographs of John Cale

John Davies Cale OBE (born 9 March 1942) is a Welsh musician, composer, and record producer who was a founding member of the American rock band the Velvet Underground. Over his six-decade career, Cale has worked in various styles in rock, drone, classical, avant-garde and electronic music.
John Cale studied music at Goldsmiths College before moving in 1963 to New York City, where he performed as part of the Theatre of Eternal Music and formed the Velvet Underground. Since leaving the band in 1968, Cale has released seventeen solo studio albums, including Paris 1919 (1973), Fear (1974) and Music for a New Society (1982). Cale has worked as a record producer on albums by artists including Nico, the Stooges, the Modern Lovers and Patti Smith.
John Davies Cale was born on 9 March 1942 in the coal mining village of Garnant, Carmarthenshire, Wales to Will Cale, a miner, and Margaret Davies, a primary school teacher. His father spoke only English, while his mother also spoke and taught Welsh to Cale. He began learning English at primary school, at around the age of seven. Cale was molested by two different men during his youth: an Anglican priest who molested him in a church and a music teacher. He played organ at Ammanford church. The BBC recorded Cale playing a toccata he composed, which some commentators compared to the work of Aram Khachaturian.
