Can’s Holger Czukay Dead at 79


The second death for that band this year. I put CAN right up there with the best. Very creative music. Ege Bamyasi has been in heavy rotation on my system for years, as has Future Days.

Complete agreement Boxer. Very sorry to hear this. Been listening to CAN since the early 70's, first on a Chicago underground station "Triad". Those were also my first 2 purchases, though now I've got 24 LP's and a couple CD's. From what I've read, CAN could not have existed without his direction. I've only heard/found a small amount of his solo/other material and so far I've been sadly unimpressed. Could you suggest anything else in his catalogue that you find particularly delightful? I realize due his creativity this is highly subjective but I'm sure he's got to have a few other good LP's out there. I prefer the classic LP's with top favorites of; Ege Bamyasi, Future Days, Tago Mago, Soundtracks, Monster Movie and The Lost Tapes, in that order.
  Any incites would be appreciated at this sad time. Thank you,  arte
Hey Arte,
Landed, Saw Delight, & Flow Motion. All three of them are also good. Flow Motion is a little odd (even for them), but still solid IMO. Of them I think the only one that is currently pressed is Saw Delight. 
All fine albums with Soon over Babaluma. Probably the wrong forum but I was more curious about any of his work outside CAN that you might be familiar with. While there are several lame CAN bootlegs out there, and their later work is obviously more commercialized than their first releases, when they were peaking around the time of  Ege Bamyasi, Tago Mago and/or Future Days, as you said they were "up there with the best". I find the Krautrock genre very enjoyable and at times quite fun to listen to. Though, saying that I must add, some of it I do not get at all.
