CAN

Tago Mago (Indie Exclusive Orange Vinyl – 2LP Set)

Tago Mago the first album with Damo Suzuki on vocals, features the Can line up of Holger Czukay on bass, Michael Karoli on guitars, Jaki Liebezeit on drums and Irmin Schmidt on keyboards, and was recorded at Schloss Nörvenich in 1971, released later that year on United Artists.

Can’s influence is well known and far-reaching and the impact they made on music is felt today as keenly as ever has been. They themselves have always been impossible to classify and reflecting this, the scope of artists who in recent years have cited Can as a major influence is varied.

The album features long-form experimental tracks blending rock improvisation, funk rhythms and musique concrète techniques.

Tago Mago has been described as Can’s best and most extreme record in sound and structure.The album has received widespread critical acclaim and is cited as an influence by various artists. Drowned in Sound called it “arguably the most influential rock album ever recorded.”
