A unique study part biography, part symposium of the experimental group Can, by founding member Irmin Schmidt and acclaimed author Rob Young.
Experimental 1960s German rock pioneers Can are the subject of this distinctive music book, which gives equal weight to telling the band's story and looking at how Can's work went on to influence the experimental end of a number of art forms.
