John Cale on I've Got a Secret



Via Classic Television Showbiz and WFMU

Dig that thick (not so thick now, I think) Welsh accent! Cale played Satie at a concert that lasted for 18 hours and his co-contestant sat through it all. Or, he Sat-ie through it all. (Yes, I DO acknowledge that I am a comedic genius, now dry your eyes)

Go Bess Myerson, GO! Buster of secrets!

Maureen Tucker's Playin’ Possum

"... After the Velvets broke up, she moved to Texas and got a job at Wal-Mart, and concentrated on raising her large family. She finally went back to music in 1981, when she recorded her first album, Playin’ Possum. She recorded it in her living room (“between diaper changes”, she says) over a period of six months, overdubbing every instrument, and the result was quite odd; it doesn’t really sound like anything else. ..."
