imo "november" and "seven days awake" are highlights of the can discography

Only album without no Holger involvement too. Couple of songs credited to Rosko Gee and not the band as a whole - I like both of them though.

Also if you didn't get a received email back from me it means I didn't get your ballot, I doubt anyone had any trouble with that but just in case.

Anyone shared this performance of vernal equinox yet?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=390Nz5Gm8Hw
they sound like such a mindblowing band to see live, I haven't seen any video in youtube to make me think otherwise... I don't understand how they didn't take over the whole world back then.

Also this Dont Say No performance from 1977 with Mooney on bass?

Oh no wait hahaha that's Rosko Gee and it's actually Moonshake?

"Don't Say No" pretty much is "Moonshake".

Rosko Gee is Jamaican for Ricky Fatar

Re "Mushroom" - it's funny how the menace and atmosphere of the JAMC cover is carried by Jim moaning "I gotta keep my distance", but they got the lyric wrong. Damo sings "I'm gonna keep my despair" in the original. Love the JAMC's arrangement too, despite Jaki's drum ouroboros being my favourite part of the CAN track.
― MatthewK, Friday, 22 July 2016 22:45 (seven years ago) link
Moka, what constitutes collab albums? Full Circle, Phew? I'd quite like to give Flux & Mutability or Canaxis a shout in the albums, I'm thinking.

Since we're talking about collabs now, this album is one of the best, Jaki & Holger going absolutely nuts in a way they often did live with Can but not so often in the studio:

There is some other stuff tracked into Thief - I know there's at least one cue by Craig Safan, didn't know about Can?
― scarcity festival (Jon not Jon), Saturday, 23 July 2016 18:27 (seven years ago) link
Sorry meant kraftwerk not can
Voted. Ballot is skewed by me not really being familiar with the post-Landed material, so is a bit 'Now That's What I Call Can' - but basically I couldn't miss this one.

voted from memory, didn't overthink it, "All Gates Open" is pretty good but it's no "Vernal Equinox" and even that got cut.
Lost Tapes did quite well

Holy shit my bad, yes T. Dream. Mostly from Force Majure. My brain must've been fried by the sun.
So I am a bit confused about the rules: collaborations by members are allowed but solo records aren't? So, no songs from, say, Movies but Phantom Band is ok?
― Naive Teen Idol, Sunday, 24 July 2016 00:07 (seven years ago) link
Part of why I'm asking is that I'm not totally sure why Movies wouldn't count but Canaxis would.
