Kraut Rock lost a gem.

CAN   -   SOON  OVER  BABALOOMA  1974.

CAN   -   FUTURE   DAYS  1973.

The final CAN album featuring Damo Suzuki as vocalist is probably the most accomplished one. It is very different from their earlier works and it introduces the band offering highly atmospheric, almost ambient music.
There are no ups and downs; listening adventure is mostly linear but that doesn't mean it is monotonous. On the contrary - it is a wonderful music of atmosphere.
Production is superb for the time being and most of the engineering and editing credits go to Holger Czukay and Irmin Schmidt who successfully experiment with various keyboards, synths, sound effects and "soundscapes", sometimes reminiscent of Brian Eno's later works.

CAN   -  EGE  BAMYASI  1972.

The fourth CAN album is another excellent addition to a collection of progressive rock.On this album, there's a slight Middle Eastern influence, no doubt for the fact they named their album after a can of Okra they found in a Turkish restaraunt in Germany. "Ege Bamyasi" has everything the neophyte listener needs to understand why CAN was such a musical force. It’s all here: the rhythmically busy, near paranormal jamming; the quieter, more hypnotic ballads.
