In To Tulsa and Back, the now 65-year-old singer-songwriter is unusually open to the camera. As Cale goes back to the origins of the Tulsa Sound, which he is often said to have created, the film makes it clear that the laidback guitar sound and restrained singing is in line with Cale’s personality: an unusually relaxed rock musician, averse to bragging. He tells about his childhood in Tulsa, Oklahoma, his wild years in psychedelic California, and his life in the studio, on stage and on the road. All this is interlaced with archival footage, impressions of a recent concert tour and awe-inspiring images of American landscapes. (DOK.fest München)
