So I set out to try and make sense of six sides of Can’s Live in Stuttgart 1975.
What a pointless effort that was.
Six sides of completely improvised unique music meandering, fragile, exotic, violent, discordant and melodic music. It’s a beautiful rambling mess and totally of itself.
I am not completely sure I can do the music justice, it’s funky and psychedelic, hypnotic and well it’s Can live.
I am fairly certain it is going to take some time to digest all of this.
Oh yeah the vinyl is orange, what’s not to love?
I definitely think live Can from that post-Damo era is more impressive than their studio records from the same era.
Cool! So is it at least more listenable than Metal Machine Music?
oh it is exceptionally listenable, highly recommended if you have three albums worth of time to listen
I always have 3 albums worth of time to listen, it just may be broken up into three or more sessions, depending on the day!
You’re a braver chap than I.
