Can - Soon Over Babaluma (1974)

Can - Soon Over Babaluma, Spoon Records, 1974

  Can i will admit is an acquired taste and certainly not a band that is immediate for even the most ardent listeners out there but if you really give this band a chance you will find pure magic in these early Krautrock albums.  Soon Over Babaluma was the first album without lead vox  Damo Suzuki but still shines as bright as the star over Babaluma.   What you do get is an angular album that twists and warps into musical places i can almost guarantee you have never heard before...Can were a band well ahead of their time and only now are being recognized for their creative genius.  This album is truely a great headphone experience album and one of me favourite Krautrock albums from the 70's.
