Album Description

"Le Vent De La Nuit" is a captivating soundtrack album composed by the legendary John Cale, released on January 1, 1999, under Why Not Productions. This concise yet powerful collection spans just 36 minutes, offering a unique blend of art rock, baroque pop, proto-punk, and singer-songwriter elements that showcase Cale's versatility and depth as a musician. The album serves as the original score for the French drama film "Night Wind," directed by Philippe Garrel, with whom Cale has collaborated on numerous occasions. The tracklist is a journey through various locations and moods, from the bustling "On The Road To Portofino" to the introspective "Memories Of Paris" suite, and the stark "Suicide 1" and "Suicide 2." Each piece is a testament to Cale's ability to evoke atmosphere and narrative through his music. Fans of Cale's work, both as a solo artist and as a member of the Velvet Underground, will find much to appreciate in this evocative and engaging album.
