Tracklisting & More Information

Named after a large rock formation off the coast of Ibiza that figured in the legend of sorcerer Aleister Crowley, Tago Mago is often cited as the ultimate 'Krautrock' or 'Kosmische' album.

Turning the usual laws of rock/pop inside out, the group placed less emphasis on standard songwriting in favour of sound exploration and rhythm, predicting the focus for the next few decades of psychedelic dance music.
Everyone from The Happy Mondays to Ozric Tentacles, Public Image, Tortoise and Radiohead owed some sort of debt to Can, who drew inspiration themselves from the white light fever of The Velvets, upfront grooves of James Brown and the blissful sound of Dub coming from Jamaica.

Tago Mago sounds astonishing on first press vinyl, German or UK. Attention to detail is heightened... the explosion on 'Mushroom', the 18-minute rhythmic powerhouse of drummer Jaki Liebezeit and bassist Holger Czukay on 'Hallejuah', locked in telepathy...

Condition: -

The textured sleeve grades VG & has no writing & the delicate envelope section remains in working order. There is some notable scuffing to the top edge, with all the other edges showing only minor wear.

Both vinyl discs are clean & play loud & proud, with no interferences & would be classed as VG. By no means mint, this is a very serviceable example & an astonishing art rock record [just don't call it Krautrock!].
