Rest in peace, Damo. You may be gone from this world physically, but you'll live on forever spiritually through this wonderful music! Searching for my brother!
Saw him live in the 90s several times playing sessions with different musicians weekly for very little money. After that I can't imagine a drummer who is actually better.
He is definately the most underrated. Even the rubbish " most underrated drummers" lists don't even mention this Behemoth of drumming. He is among the GOAT for me.
The breakbeat he came up with for Vitamin C was ahead of it's time. With all the sampling in 80's hip hop, it's really surprising that it didn't get used until 3rd Base split up and Pete Nice used on his first solo album in the 90's.
It's weird I don't know why so many Can fans love this song and this album so much. I think this song is ok, and the album is definitely one of the better Can albums, but best? I prefer both soundtracks and Ege Bamyasi, maybe that's just me though
@@humzahj. I think it's because it's a very specific album. All the songs go well with each other. They all fit the same aesthetic. And the album's flow from one track to another is also amazing.
Jugenderinnerungen. Mit 16 wurde ich mit dieser Musik bekannt gemacht. Ein Gegenentwurf zu dem herkömmlichen Pop Business. Die starke musikalische Qualität war mir damals nicht so deutlich wie heute mit 65.
You can hear Can's influence on Post-Punk, Hip-Hop, Post-Rock, Electronic music, everything that came after...Massive Attack, the Minutemen, Talk Talk, and any more. You can hear a little Can in them all.
100%. You can debate which Can album is the greatest all you want, Tago Mago is the most unhinged of them all by a wide wide margin. Like musicians somehow going into a pre-consciousness state of mind and just unloading every idea they had, cohesively, onto a spiralling, unfolding genius album.
Hate to rehash the obvious comparison, but Can and the Velvet Underground were time travelers. They influenced music that didn’t truly occur again until decades later.
I like the way everything swirls around, sometimes like a meandering river, sometimes like a blistering hurricane, but all the time there is that solid 4/4 on th hi-hat grounds everything like an electrical earth. Then everything builds up to the greatest crescendo in popular music - and we're back to Jaki's atomic clock!! Abolutely mental how good CAN were. Legends!
Definitely a swirly song. I was 16 on ego-deathing on gel tabs and definitely noticed it. I don't know anything about music theory but when you're so gone you BECOME the music you can definitely tell what's got "it" and what doesn't. This track has got "it" in spades.
Only one member of the band still alive now, they gave such weird joy to so many people, thanks guys RIP only Irmin Schmidt ( Keyboardist ). I was wrong Damo Suzuki ( vocals) is also alive, silly me.

Ich kann mich noch gut daran erinnern, 40 Jahre her, in leicht verrauchten Clubs, dieses Schlagzeug hat einen so in den Kopf gehämmert.......... Immer noch extrem gute Musik.
Why so surprised at the year??...to me and many other older cats, it's just normal stuff we grew up with... don't know your age...but I've only encountered the younger generation being surprised at the year of this music...real instruments,played by real people with state of the art equipment of it's day...sounds best on vintage stereo equipment it was designed for during that era😊😊
Can were fucking mutants from the 13th dimension!!! Damo shouting like a madman, Jaki’s utterly visceral beats, etc, quite literally out of this fucking world!
I'm still here a month later, this music has kept me hostage with its grooves, and I find I slide across the floor nowadays. I've forgot how to walk normally.
Questo gruppo era formidabile,completamente fuori dagli schemi del classico rock ,completamente libero di inventarsi nuovi e originali stilemi,pura creativita'
It's 2022 and Can played this 51 years ago. Awesome. ❤😊 Beyond art jazz, post punk, art wave,hip hop, whatever Can is, they are very original and absolutely fantastic!
Il fraseggio della chitarra di Michael karoli è incredibilmente originale,totalmente fuori da qualsiasi canone di qualsivoglia genere pop,rock,folk,blues,jazz,soul ecc...
damn where have I been, Can is so nice, these grooves are so perfect, with the experiments in the background, I want to check out another song but the groove just keeps on goin, pullin me in, its like hypnotic
lyceen à l'époque ou ce groupe s'est produit dans de petites salles, j'ai eu la chance de les voir à Limoges à la maison du peuple et dans une ville proche exactement à saint junien (haute Vienne). IL me reste un souvenir inébranlable de la basse. MAGNIFIQUES CONCERTS
I was in a car with friends, we drove as long as the Can tape last. Stone as ........ Enter southNorway in the morning, and no one know where we was.....!
This might truly be the absolute fucking greatest rock song EVER. I could listen to this and nothing else for the rest of my days and I wouldn't be upset in the slightest. I mean wtf, how do you top that beat the drummer is throwing down? That shit is pure fire. 🔥👍🏽
Trippiest band on earth, I loved them ever since i found them in the 90s, and feel like their sound get "moderner" every time i listen to some of their stuff! Can't stop CAN.
I discovered their music very recently despite the fact that I had heard their name about 40 years ago ( at that time I was into other groups / genres)... I like them a lot ( understatement)....This track is awesome and "One More Night" is pure ecstasy
I'm in the same boat. Heard about them many moons ago but it took until the big lockdown (12 weeks) to find the time to go searching for the bands I was just a few years too young to have heard at the time.
This band has been in my life since I was 18 or so, this is one of my favourite ever albums- check out, - moonshake- dizzy dizzy- sunday jam- future days to name a few- enjoy the groove people.
@@kenkovar2647 Agreed - they took the best qualities of improvisational jamming, the looseness, riding pockets after stumbling on an 'a-ha!' groove, and somehow faithfully carried that energy into the studio. Everything flows so organically, yet simultaneously I can appreciate how carefully orchestrated every moment of this piece is.
@@WillowWytch69 if the band was confident enough in a song to sacrifice the space that another 4 or 5 songs could've taken up then its probably gonna be great
The part starts at 15:08 and ends around 16:30 with a wonderful "Come Down" and a perfect resolution back to the main topic. It's so unbelievable, so ingenious, it's like looking straight into God's creation...
18 and a half minutes long and it's not long enough, if you ask me. This is the most faithful musical reproduction of losing your mind then regaining your bearings I've heard. Conceptually similar to what LSD does to you - temporary insanity, loss of faculty, unhinging from reality. No surprise that Tago Mago and LSD mix so perfectly.
Ten seconds in and its like: 'this is a track I will be playing for the rest of my life- daily if possible'. Reckon Shaun Ryder felt the same way- sounds like Happy Mondays stretched out a career from this musical mothership.
Exactly. I’m a big Monday’s fan and just heard CAN this past year thanks to The immensely talented Joy Dwyer of The Osees giving credit where credits due. It’s pretty clear that Tina, Jerry, David, and Chris of Talking Heads took some huge liberties without tipping their collective hats. It’s safe to say that CAN opened the doors for many “influential” acts.
Never heard anything that complex that’s so easy to listen to in the music world in my life and I’m 43 you’ve got funk, rock, soul, way ahead of it’s time but a masterpiece non the less🔥🔥🔥
I saw them in concert in the suburb of Toulouse, with pieces of Song of Babaloona, a pure wonder, 3 days with the music in my head, saying it's good, damn it's good, I was 24 years .... LOL ...! .... What a foot .... awesome

Jaki Liebezeit was the most underrated drummer this planet has ever seen... One of the greatests...
To me he was the greatest, that I knew. This song is the proof. 😊💚
Saw him live in the 90s several times playing sessions with different musicians weekly for very little money.
After that I can't imagine a drummer who is actually better.
Jaki was a drumming machine with plenty of groove
He is definately the most underrated. Even the rubbish " most underrated drummers" lists don't even mention this Behemoth of drumming. He is among the GOAT for me.

"I don't use loops, I play loops." probably the best to ever do it, RIP JAKI.
I eat LOOPS of the fruity kind ..lol
jaki the motorman
@Kayson Alex What about this beat man? Jaki has hacked my mind!
He's the drum machine man
Recorded before Can got their first multitrack. Incredible.

Yes you Can
can and the velvet underground invented an incredible chunk of modern genres between themselves
Hate to rehash the obvious comparison, but Can and the Velvet Underground were time travelers. They influenced music that didn’t truly occur again until decades later.
The world would be so much cooler if everyone listened to Can. My God this is soma.
How could anyone bomb civilians if they knew CAN!?!!
The great band with the best drummer in the world, Jaki Liebezeit!
Meaning of 'Liebezeit' - Love Time
cool aint it what a name
So influential... From hip-hop to post-punk...
Public Image Ltd, Talking Heads, Happy Mondays...
Stone Roses... the drum beat from Fools Gold, it's all from here.

Absolute masterpiece from one of the best bands ever
I bought Tago Mago way back when it was released and for me they had the Greatest Rhythm Section and is still the best ever along with maybe NEU!
believe it or not this song helped me find my sobriety..
How so? I'm curious!
@@maximumoccupancy the groove forced him to meditate on his deficiencies until he had no choice but to confront them.
Less than 90 seconds in, and I already think this is one of the greatest tracks ever recorded.
Is it ever eh! >:-D

Jaki, the funky drummer too, is immortal. Thanks for the rhythms and the hypnotic playing.
RIP Damo, one of my favourite vocals from him.
This song is incredible. The drums and guitar??? Damn
My favorite drum beat of all time
Me too!
Saw these in 70s at either Imperial or LSE. These were absolutely made for acid. One of greatest nights ever and I cannot explain why???
To hear this song after a regular rock'n'roll performance of any so called superstars is like leaving planet earth for eternity.
It's like drinking cola wi out the fizz until u discover this track
absolutely true ! !
hell yesssssss
Mi primer lp de can lo compre en Montevideo era una disqueria pequeña se llamaba el lp días futuros una sorpresa que aún perdura.tato. De maldonado
Ich kann mich noch gut daran erinnern, 40 Jahre her, in leicht verrauchten Clubs, dieses Schlagzeug hat einen so in den Kopf gehämmert.......... Immer noch extrem gute Musik.
What keeps freaking me out about this is that it's from 1971! Let me say that again.......1971 !!!
...and I was born in Oct. that year, and this still sounds like music of the future!!!
This was "smoking or acid" music in '71.
Damn, I missed it by about 4 years.
Why so surprised at the year??...to me and many other older cats, it's just normal stuff we grew up with... don't know your age...but I've only encountered the younger generation being surprised at the year of this music...real instruments,played by real people with state of the art equipment of it's day...sounds best on vintage stereo equipment it was designed for during that era😊😊

Hearing these guys for the first time in 2022. Amazing stuff- some of the best grooves I've ever heard. Absolutely far ahead of their time.
It's 2022 and Can played this 51 years ago. Awesome. ❤😊
Beyond art jazz, post punk, art wave,hip hop,
whatever Can is, they are very original and absolutely fantastic!
AGREED!!
Best Krautrock band of all time and my favorite can song. so much power in there, incredible track.
Mr. Tulip What about Amon Duul II ? Phallus Dei , best Krautrock Album ever
therehastobeme I have always considered Yeti to be their defining album, but almost any Amon Duul II is certainly worth a listen.
Mr. Tulip Best fucking rock song of all time. I say that about multiple rock songs but it's still true.
+TheSwordOfTheMorning It's just so cool. That's true rock music to me.
Can is great, Faust is better
It never grows old...never boring.....eternal

35 years down the line and boy does this track still do the business, straight to the soul.
IT'S THE BEAT.....
the drumming alone makes it worth listening..
Thanks for your input.
Pushing 40 and just now finally getting into Can. This band is fire! Thankfully they've got a huge discography, should last me til I'm 50 :P
Damn, where had this band been all my life?
Tago Mago. It ranks among the ten best album ever.
This is my comfort song 🥰 I'm so glad I discovered CAN this year!
AGREED!!!
I believe this song can induce hypnosis.
Mark Hollis's favourite band and album. RIP Mark
Didn't know that! Makes sense, given the more experimental route he took with Talk Talk. Also, "It's My Life" is one of the best pop songs EVER.
Laughing Stock and Tago Mago are my two favourite albums so this fact is blowing my mind! I hadn't even considered Can to be an influence on Talk Talk
yeah, I can kinda hear this in after the flood honestly
damn where have I been, Can is so nice, these grooves are so perfect, with the experiments in the background, I want to check out another song but the groove just keeps on goin, pullin me in, its like hypnotic
Ege Bamyasi and and Future Days are nice probably both are more accessible then this one, but Tago Mago is like hypnotic acid rock
kipperfeast it's the fucking ballsss period, but they did make other great album, you're right about that
Damn, just went from seeing your comments on MGMT videos to here. Right on, man. Great taste.
Fucking see you everywhere man!! From King gizzard and flightless to this.. Props on the music taste my dude
EXACTLY AS INTENDED ..LOL
Know this gem since I was13 and did lots of drum jams while listening at full volume
sometimes a little hearing loss is the price you gotta pay!😎😂

One of the greatest Rock epics. The band's best song and the pinnacle of Krautrock.
Ever get a "Where have I been?"feeling? Listening to this has done that to me.
How did Jaki come up with a hip hop beat, well over a decade before it existed? The guy is remarkable. Not even human.
...and The Meters from 1968. Everything has something that came prior. Jaki had open ears. That's the only trick.
