Awesome LP in NM+ Condition! Limited edition on awesome orange swirl vinyl , hand numbered out of 50 copies on the back sleeve!! "The tracks on this release  were taken from the famous Can free concert in Cologne, Germany, on February 3, 1972. This is the audio from the same concert documented by the video item of the out of print Can Box set, and the audio quality is quite good and the performances are outstanding. On these tracks, the group locks into one long, propulsive groove after another, blending minimalism with improvisation. Whereas "Spoon" and "Paperhouse" diverge quite a bit from the studio cuts with more improvisational moves, the versions of "Bring Me Coffee or Tea" and "Halleluwah" are fairly straightforward renderings of the Tago Mago tracks, though certainly with Can's looseness there is still enough variation. What the live versions lack in instrumental depth and studio effects they make up in energy. The only non-studio album track, "Love Me Tonight," is a nice bit of avant funk, with powerful rhythms and some great keyboard drones. "Spoon" is the highlight, with Michael Karoli's soaring, droning guitar solos wailing over the perfectly metronomic rhythm section, until halfway through the song the group turns up the intensity. Very good sound quality and excellent performances make this essential for Can fans. Tracks: Spoon/Bring Me Coffee Or Tea/Love Me Tonight/Halleluwah/Paperhouse"  Shipping will be 4$ US Media Mail,9$ Canada/Mexico, and 15$ world for standard First Class mail.
