    John Cale's 1992 live Fragments of a Rainy Season holds a special place in the hearts of longtime fans. Cale was no stranger to concert sets. Among his most notorious are the snarling Sabotage/Live from CBGB's and 1986's howling Even Cowgirls Get the Blues. Fragments captures Cale completely solo. His iconic singing voice, rainbow variety of melodies, and poetic lyrics are accompanied only by his piano or acoustic guitar. It's easily his most welcoming album, the one that provides a solid introduction as he ranges through his back catalog.
    John Cale - Fragments of a Rainy Season (1992) {Ltd. Edition 2016 Remastered Reissue with Outtakes Extra Disc}

    This reissue adds four solo outtakes plus four string-accompanied readings from different concerts, resulting in 28 cuts. Cale also substantially changes the sequence. This one opens with the trilogy of Dylan Thomas poems he set to music – "Wedding Anniversary," "Lie Still, Sleep Becalmed," and "Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night." (The studio versions appeared on the Brian Eno-produced Words for the Dying in 1989.) Cale delivers them with drama and a concert pianist's empathy, creating a mini suite. The stripped-bare "Cordoba" allows its suspenseful, sinister, John LeCarre-esque lyrics to shine. There are three versions of "Fear (Is a Man's Best Friend)" on this: Two solo and one with strings. All are different and retain the wonderfully chaotic improvisation in the middle. "A Child's Christmas in Wales" (the title borrowed from Thomas) retains the dignity found on its Paris 1919 studio version, but this one communicates bittersweet longing and regret more than magical reverie. "Guts" is offered as a pumping, spirited martial indictment, while "Ship of Fools," with its chunky guitar strumming, is equal parts folk song and sea shanty. The brilliant "Dying on the Vine" (written with author/journalist Larry Sloman) is a harrowing, vulnerable, and lyrically clever reflection on alcoholism, maternal memory, and the rueful trappings of indulging the "high life" in Hollywood. "(I Keep A) Close Watch" is riveting, far more compelling than its studio counterpart on 1975's Helen of Troy. The official closer is Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah." This glorious reading (whose studio recording is on the tribute album I'm Your Fan) is based on the 15 original verses given to Cale by Cohen). Perhaps more importantly, it's the one that Jeff Buckley modeled his on. Here Cale is completely committed; his delivery as filled with conviction as one who knows just how illuminating utter brokenness can be. In the bonus track section, "Heartbreak Hotel," with strings, marries Brecht-ian cabaret to jazz improv to 20th century classical music. The final outtakes of "Paris 1919" and "Antarctica Starts Here" reveal Cale as a kaleidoscopic, quirky pop classicist in the lineage of Randy Newman and Jimmy Webb. The original Fragments of a Rainy Season is a masterpiece; this remastered, expanded edition not only underscores that reputation, but allows for a fresh appreciation (or first discovery) of it as such.
