Self explanatory really... what are people's favourite artists/albums?

Also R.I.P. Klaus Dinger, who died last month: early Kraftwerk drummer, invented 'motorik' and ofcourse formed the axis of Neu! with Michael Rother in 1971.

I want Julian Cope's book

GravitySlips · 04-13-2008, 05:41 PM

my favourites are Can by far. Tago Mago, Ege Bamyasi and Future Days are all perfect albums to me.

I've read Japrocksampler by Julian Cope and it is excellent, gonna pick up Krautrocksampler soon.

Molecules · 04-13-2008, 06:18 PM

not been able to find Krautrocksampler anywhere, only the German edition. It's well up for a re-print

Krautrock is pretty cool in general and I've been getting into more of it lately. I feel that Can and Amon Duul II were the best bands from the movement.

And I've met Damo Suzuki.

Good list, I love 'Monster Movie' with vocalist Malcolm Mooney (who according to the sleevenotes was a sculptor avoiding the Vietnam draft, who left can after having a nervous breakdown onstage, repeating the same mantra incessantly).
But the remastered 'Tago Mago' is probably my most cherished possession. Given a choice between losing that album and my penis I would probably save the album. It's really good.

Klaus Dinger was great and everything but Jaki Liebezeit was the guy who propelled Can into the stratosphere with his grooves. A very good example of that is seen here:

I think Can are in a league of their own in the sense that they're not a traditional band, but an organic musical symbiont of the four original members - the singers might as well be figments of their collective imagination
