Can
Soon Over Babaluma
Label: United Artists Records
Catalog Number: UAS 29 673 I
Released: 1974, 70's
Can’s first album following the departure of vocalist Damo Suzuki is an experimental trip featuring looping hypnotic grooves that, at times, sound like proto-electronic-dance music. Guitarist Michael Karoli and keyboardist Irmin Schmidt take on vocal duties here and the result is actually surprisingly perfect with their subdued, almost spoken delivery coasting along Jaki and Holger’s pulsing rhythms. One fan sums up the group’s sound quite perfectly: “Can creates sounds like a looping machine instead of a group performing a song.”
