CAN - Delay 1968






















A few words.
CAN is one of a few internationally known "Krautrock" groups; they are famous for their repetitive and hallucinatory sound. CAN was founded in 1968 by LIEBEZEIT, Irmin SCHMIDT and Holger CZUKAY, and in their early days they also included American singer Malcolm MOONEY or Japanese vocalist Damo SUZUKI.
They transformed progressive-rock into a science. By bridging classical music, jazz music and rock music of their times, CAN accomplished the first organic study on rhythm and texture. Their hypnotic and glacial instrumental jams straddled the line between free-jazz, acid-rock and chamber music.

CAN's music can be difficult to appreciate, yet their albums offer some of the best experimental rock ever recorded. Then there are always the myths, the legends and the fascination.

CAN will be remembered as one of the great 20th century bands. I've listened to their music over and over again. These 7 albums i posted regarded as their best,from Delay to Monster Movie,from Tago Mago to Future Days,from Egge Bamyasi to their famous"Soon Over Babaluma".

Enjoy the golden era of KrautRock!!


CAN \ DELAY 1968

This album originally came out in the early 1980s but covers roughly the same period (late 1968 and much of 1969) as their debut album, "Monster Movie" and likewise features their original singer, Malcolm Mooney.
