Reissue of the first Can album, originally issued in 1969. Can's debut is the only full-length, proper release to feature original vocalist Malcolm Mooney, whose free-form ranting is matched by a raw, aggressive dynamic unlike anything else in the group's canon; driving, dissonant songs like the extraordinary 'Father Cannot Yell' and 'Outside my Door' even owe a rather surprising debt to psychedelia and garage rock. More indicative of things to come is the closer 'Yoo Doo Right,' a 20-minute epic built on the kinds of hypnotic motifs and minimal rhythms which quickly became can trademarks.
