Can playing "Moonshake" live at WDR german tv in 1977. Line up ; Holger Czuckay (tape recorder), Michael Karoli (guitar), Jaki liebezeit (drums), Irmin Schmidt (keyboards) and Rosko Gee (bass).
Not always as 'pleasing bands to listen to'...listen to Aumgn or Peking O from Tago Mago! That's some challenging music for sure, brilliant, but definitely unsettling.
sorry to be so offtopic but does someone know a way to get back into an instagram account?? I was stupid forgot my account password. I appreciate any tips you can give me!
The bass line that Rosko Gee added in this version is smooth as hell. I honestly prefer it to the standard recording. Really changes the vibe of the track
It's the groove 😎 Rosko Gee is an amazing musician with great taste... Can, Traffic, Phantom band and the great supergroup Go with Yasashita, Schulze, Winwood, Di Meola, etc... They were among the fathers of fusion in the 1970s.
I bought tago mago in my teens from a second hand store that had a rotory album stand outside the shop. Also from there bought Roy harpers HQ album that had a sticker on it saying not to be resold. Point of the story is that I worked in a pub collecting and washing glasses. And back in those days closing time was 11.00 . Once last orders had been called the landlord would put on unusual music to hurry customers out the door. I gave him tago mago to play and it emptied the pub rapidly but the rest of us left behind cleaning up loved it .
Problably the last voice saying "Hallo?" was actually a real telephone call on stage to a stranger. Amazing ideas, innovations and attitude that echoes until today in all styles of art and music.
@Ken Shabby All Gates Open comes from their eponymous Can album. I like their late stuff way better than the early albums. Especially live, where the addition of Roscoe really improved them.
I vaguely remember seeing them at an all-nighter at Brunel university in '73 when I was 16, wish I'd paid more attention. Great band and an awesome track that's always on my 'driving' playlist
Growing up in the 80s I was, and am still, a huge Can fan. I never knew there was so much video/live footage of them until I started seeing it get posted on YT during the 2000s... please keep digging these treasures out of the archives
@@cloudshigh5091 I moved to East London in 1989, at the time there were a few bands we would often see who were obviously influenced by the likes of Can, Neu and Faust. I remember going to see Loop in some basement in South London one night and they did probably the best cover of Mother Sky I've yet to hear. Faithful to the original but with their own twist... well worth a listen. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ytF5JUCk1J0.html
The style that this band play can be described as funky, jazzy experimental rock with a psychedelic twang. Do miss the etheric Damo Suzuki's vocals in the tune but this instrumental version sounds great.
Will describe this band as funky and jazzed experimental rock with a psychedelic twang to it. Miss the dulcete tones of Damo Suzuki on this version but the instrumental style is still great.
ru-vid.com/group/PL0VoTWac71TxbT3sq3i6O72TByPS6PqEg I was so bothered with this image of you stuck in a 1977 hole cursing all these modern ways, with their microwaves and their new fangled drum machines that I put together a care package playlist of diverse music from the last decade. It was fun to do. Give some of these creators a like and adjust your RU-vid algorithm.
Stereolab ate the Can didn't they. I just wanna time travel back to 1977, neck a bag of mushrooms, sit in the audience and soak this up right now. Bliss.
Honestly why i love stereolab so much, so many moments where i go... "Ahhhh, man do i love when can does that." Great homage but with their own soon spin.
@@blushingfrieza 100%. Every Lab gig I've ever been to has been absolutely amazing. Also Cobra and Phases is massively underrated, it deserves more love.
In den 80er Jahren sah ich Holger öfters in Köln über die Lindenstraße schlendern, hab mich aber nie getraut ihn anzusprechen… dabei kannten wir uns, oder besser ich kannte ihn, aus den Can Konzerten im Jugendheim Unna Massen 1972 und 1973 … Halleluhwah(:
yeah this is "don't say no" from saw delight. they are essentially the same exact song, this and moonshake. but with this line up and year, the band themselves woulda referred to it as don't say no.
They lasted a good while after Damo left, and made some great, overlooked albums. I'm not a fan of Damo and Malcolm's more esoteric contributions - I love the Rosko/Reebop era - one of my favourite albums is Out Of Reach, and apparently even the band didn't like that one!
I find the term 'Krautrock' so fuckin offensive. I saw an interview with Jaki Liebezeit when he expressed his dislike for the moniker. Apart from anything this sound is too sophisticated to be categorised let alone categorised by ethnicity and a derogatory term at that.
