Paris 1919

Paris 1919 is the third solo studio album by the Welsh musician John Cale, released on 25 February 1973 by Reprise Records. Musicians including Lowell George of Little Feat and Wilton Felder performed on the album. It was produced by Chris Thomas. In contrast to the experimental nature of much of Cale's work, the album is noted for its orchestral singer-songwriter style, reminiscent of contemporary pop rock music. Its title is a reference to the 1919 Paris Peace Conference, and its lyrics explore various aspects of early 20th-century European culture and history.
