* PREORDER * expected to arrive Aug-Sept
Includes 4-pg booklet.
The acclaimed CAN live series continues. The series was overseen by founding member Irmin Schmidt and producer / engineer René Tinner, who delicately worked on restoring the archival recordings to the best quality for current modern technology. This record captures the band’s 1977 performance in Aston and features Schmidt (keyboard and synths), Jaki Liebezeit (drums), Michael Karoli (guitars) and Holger Czukay (wave receiver and spec. sounds), plus Rosko Gee (bass), who appears for the first time in the series.
Includes sleeve notes by former Sex Pistol, Glen Matlock, sharing his first-hand experience
of witnessing CAN’s live show.
