the song was introduced by Cale in Cardiff, Wales in 1986 as "two jail birds who were also lovers". Great performance of my favorite live John Cale song.

It's genius, even more dramatized than FOARS version.

"And that's why I quit drinking." Peckinpah's "Ballad of Cable Hogue" is an exercise in monumental self-regard: perhaps that's why it stuck in John's mind as a metaphor for Lou Reed.

That is a goosebump inducing performance. Awesome. I am also enjoying Cale's - 'A Dream' from Songs for Drella gig. An altogether different performance that next to Cable Hogue shows Cale's versatile genius. Thank you for posting

It was filmed in Bochum/Germany (Zeche) for the WDR concert show "Rockpalast" in 1983. I have an old VHS of this. Simply amazing. John was all over the piano later on.
