{"product_id":"john-cale-slow-dazzle-180gm-vinyl","title":"John Cale- Slow Dazzle - 180gm Vinyl","description":"\u003cp\u003eFollowing on quickly from Fear, and capitalising on that album's energy Slow Dazzle is another fiery release by Velvet Underground founder John Cale - This re-issue faithfully replicates the original 1975 Island Records UK release and is pressed onto high quality 180gm vinyl. Released in March 1975, initially, the album offers a false sense of mellow security: \"Mr Wilson\", a tribute to Brian, the leader of Cale's beloved Beach Boys starts the on a much sweeter note than \"Fear Is A Man's Best Friend\", as does \"Taking It All Away\"; by \"Dirty Ass Rock'n'Roll\" Slow Dazzle is off to darker terrain, business as usual. Cale, however, cannot resist a pop song and a ballad \"Ski Patrol\" is a great two-minute vignette, and \"I'm Not The Loving Kind\" is soul-baring. The album's reputation, however, rests on two tracks \"Guts\", a bald telling of Cale's wife's infidelity and his pitch-black cover of Elvis Presley's \"Heartbreak Hotel\". 50 years later, these songs still pack a tremendous punch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTrack List\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMr. Wilson\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Taking It All Away\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Dirty-Ass Rock 'N' Roll\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Darling I Need You\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Rollaroll\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Heartbreak Hotel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Ski Patrol\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e I'm Not the Loving Kind\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Guts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e The Jeweller\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"mysite","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53091681665360,"sku":"8.0552E+11","price":6.2,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0933\/2762\/2480\/files\/4385245-3289522.jpg?v=1780307532","url":"https:\/\/noirrecordsuk.com\/products\/john-cale-slow-dazzle-180gm-vinyl","provider":"Noir Records Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
