Short excerpt on YouTube:

same year, basically the same cover, will I drop $50 on it? I dunno probably. it has Sechs and Sieben on it!!!

Ugh I refreshed the bandcamp like 3 times hoping there was a preview track and that it just wasn’t loading for me

xp: Sechs und Sieben.

Nevermind I now see the excerpt above. I wonder if this was recorded by the same guy as the first one…has a very similar sound quality.

I think everything in this series was recorded by the same guy

I bet they'll do a box set once everyone has bought all the individual releases - I'm holding out :D

So is this show the one that these two songs from Live Music (1971-1977) came from?

"Dizzy Dizzy" – 8:02
19th Nov 1975, Brighton, Sussex University
"Vernal Equinox" – 12:44
19th Nov 1975, Brighton, Sussex University

O SHIT
I hope so bc those tracks 🔥🔥🔥

Hope there's some Damo stuff coming down the pike, but also love that this zone of perfect rapport between the core members is getting so much richer.

I like that they're doing post-Damo stuff first, because my knowledge of post-Damo can is pretty meager.

IIRC the main archive they're drawing on is a dude who made tapes mostly in the post-Damo years, so that's something to keep in mind.

A lot of the live Can post damo ive heard has sounded better than the studio versions, so that makes it all the more exciting imo

yeah, all this post-74 live stuff rules

unperson: Landed, Unlimited Edition, and Flow Motion are all really good!

Indeed, and those albums are my cut-off point.

They were playing Ege Bamyasi at REI in Portland today. It ruled

Live and studio Can were very much different things by then, by design I'd say. The band were great live in this period but tbh I've heard much better quality recordings - soundwise - than this.

Saw Delight and Inner Space are quite good as well. Out of Reach is the only out and out dud they've ever made, in my opinion

well I guess the reunion album too, though that one is at least pretty funny

i think when we did the can poll i fell in love with every can record except out of reach? rite time sounds cursed but i kinda like that

the single edit of "Hoolah Hoolah" which samples "Spoon" is hilarious

what can I say, I have soft spot for it somehow. it's really a bizarre record

Inner Space is one I don't have, I need to check it out.

That's "Can"? The last album? 'Tis good!

I love Saw Delight and Inner Space (and all the ones before too)

hard to think of another band that changed their sound so many times within a single decade. maybe Yellow Magic Orchestra

All Gates Open one of my fave Can songs.

amazing tune, sounds like a cosmic beer hall

I assume, by now, we've all seen the clip of Can playing "I Want More" on Top of the Pops - the one where Michael Karoli has been replaced by some guy who looks like Lou Reed, which is unfortunate as Karoli was the only member of Can who could conceivably pass for a pop star. Well, here's a clip of them playing it, with Karoli, with added bonus of some hilarious German comedy.

!!!!! thank you

All Gates Open one of my fave Can songs.

"Soon Over Babaluma" is post-Damo, definitely no drop-off there.

Gee “I Want More” sounds like an influence on Talking Heads’ “I Zimbra” to me.

"Soon Over Babaluma" is post-Damo, definitely no drop-off there.

Great to see the Can/Inner Space album get recognized, for me it’s the best post-Babaluma record

There was a package with this and Out of Reach together which I think maybe convinced some people they were both crap

I don't think many people were interested in Can by 1979 tbh.

Or by a new album by Can in 1979 rather.

one time I listened to Soon Over Babaluma while totally zonked and had an epiphany that it was about making pasta

Dizzy Dizzy is gathering the ingredients, Come Sta is impatiently waiting for the water to heat up, Splash is when the bubbles start forming, Chain Reaction is when the water starts boiling like crazy, Quantum Mechanics is the moment you drop the spaghetti in

idk it made a lot of sense at the time

I like this interpretation

was listening to The Individualism of Gil Evans earlier and thinking how much it reminded me of Can, only no matter good how amazingly great a drummer Jaki was - he was no Elvin Jones!

I don’t think I’d heard “All Gates Open” before - thank you for that!

tomorrow, then (some people already have their copies) https://canofficial.bandcamp.com/album/live-in-brighton-1975-2

oon thanks

oon ooh

Prepare to meet thine oon

Oon Over Babaluna (Babaloona?)

Listened from Eins to Vier this morning - it's another stellar release

I bought it on Bandcamp but they haven't released the downloads yet. WTF?!?

hey!!! there are vocals on this one!! what the hell
