Album notes
Personnel: John Cale (vocals, keyboards, viola); Bob Neuwirth (vocals, banjo, harmonica); Jenni Muldaur (vocals); David Tronzo, Michael Brook (guitar); Eric Senko (bass); Ben Perowsky (drums); Gerry Hemingway (percussion, programming). Soldier String Quartet: David Soldier, Lisa R. Gutkin, Dawn M. Buckholz, Alicia A. Svigals. Recorded at Skyline Studios, New York. In the first half of the '90s, John Cale participated in a series of worthy collaborations. SONGS FOR DRELLA, which he made with Lou Reed, and WRONG WAY UP, with Brian Eno, were followed by this work with one-time Bob Dylan crony, Bob Neuwirth (he was a regular fixture of the Rolling Thunder Revue). LAST DAY ON EARTH is a theatrical piece that is concerned with a sort of world-traveling tourist. He is introduced to a spectacular cafe in which he meets a range of people. Their experiences and their characters inform the bulk of the proceedings from there on. There are 16 thematically linked selections, making this one ongoing larger piece. Both Cale and Neuwirth present the voices of these characters. The former's keyboards and viola and the latter's banjo and harmonica are joined by the percussion of Gerry Hemingway throughout. A rhythm section, guitarist David Tronzo, and guest vocalist Jenni Muldaur make instrumental contributions as well.
