Release date:02-12-2019 (originally released in 1971)

2019 EU reissue orange vinyl 2LP- This is perhaps Can's finest album. Tago Mago was Can's 3ird long-player and the second album to feature the vocals of Damo Suzuki, who took over from Malcolm Mooney.

Generally considered as the band's best work, consisting of intensely rhythmic jazz-inspired drumming, improvised guitar and keyboard soloing, tape edits, and Suzuki's idiosyncratic vocalisms.

7 mighty tracks with the band at their kosmische psychedelic peak through seminal tracks such as " Mushroom" and the side-long pieces " Halleluwah" and " Aumgan" .

Of all the band’s oeuvre, Tago Mago has been most often cited as an influence for a host of artists including John Lydon, Radiohead, The Fall, Ariel Pink, Fuck Buttons, Sonic Youth, Factory Floor and Queens Of The Stone Age. Just last week Geoff Barrow (Portishead) mentioned Can as his favourite and most inspiring band ever (The Quietus).
