Can - Live In Stuttgart 1975

Live In Stuttgart 1975 is a live album by German progressive rock band CAN, released in May 2021 via Spoon Records.

CAN was a German experimental rock band formed in Cologne in 1968 by the core quartet of Holger Czukay (bass, tape editing), Irmin Schmidt (keyboards), Michael Karoli (guitar), and Jaki Liebezeit (drums). The group cycled through several vocalists, most prominently the American-born Malcolm Mooney (1968–70) and the Japanese-born Damo Suzuki (1970–73), as well as various temporary members during their career.

Coming from backgrounds in the avant-garde and jazz, the members of CAN blended elements of psychedelic rock, funk, and noise on influential albums such as Tago Mago (1971), Ege Bamyasi (1972) and Future Days (1973).

Live In Stuttgart 1975 is the first of a curated series of CAN live concerts available in full for the first time on CD and vinyl (and digitally).

Originally recorded on tape, these carefully restored live albums will comprise the entirety of each show in the format of a story with a beginning, middle and end, with CAN’s performances taking on a life of their own.

The first pressing on vinyl will be a 3LP set on orange vinyl and packaged in a triple gatefold sleeve with 12” 4 page booklet that includes new extensive sleeve notes by novelist Alan Warner, archivist Andy Hall and manager Sandra Podmore Schmidt.

This triple album 3LP record set is a limited edition on orange coloured vinyl housed in a tri-fold gatefold sleeve with a 4 page booklet and download code, pressed in the UK via Spoon Records.
