John Cale & Terry Riley - Church of Anthrax
CBS S-64259 United Kingdom 1971
Sleeve: Excellent
Vinyl: Excellent
A one-time-only collaboration between former Velvet Underground co-founder John Cale and minimalist composer Terry Riley, 1971's Church of Anthrax doesn't sound too much like the solo work of either. Around this time, Riley's works were along the lines of "A Rainbow in Curved Air" or "Poppy Nogood and the Phantom Band": pattern music with an obsessive attention to repetition and tricks with an analogue delay machine that gave his music a refractory, almost hallucinogenic quality. Though Cale was trained in a similar aesthetic (he played with La Monte Young, surely the most minimal of all minimalist composers), he had largely left it behind by 1971, and so Church of Anthrax mixes Riley's drones and patterns with a more muscular and melodic bent versed in both free jazz and experimental rock.
Original UK 6-track vinyl LP on the orange CBS label, the picture sleeve features sleeve notes by John Cale himself. Both sleeve & vinyl are in Excellent condition!
