Jaki Liebezeit deserve his own thread on WATMM. Come on, he was the human metronome or drum machine. We should worship him. Forever. I'm sure he had an influence on electronic music in some way. What an amazing drummer... R.I.P.

discovering Can mid-teens was a revelation & a huge part of that was how locked-in their rhythm section could be

 

Krautrock veterans like Holger Czukay (78) & Roedelius (82) stagger the mind with their respective catalogs....some of the finest music from the 2nd half of the 20thC

this song, (the drumming esp) - was my gateway into the caniverse

could it possibly have been as good with a different drummer?

that video was blocked here, so went looking another version on youtube and found this, the song sounds pretty much the same backwards:

I wouldn't be surprised if that song in part inspired Radiohead - Spinning Plates.

 

But I think that about almost every Can song I hear.  "I bet this inspired Radiohead - ______."  And I always manage to convince myself of it.

John Wetton played with King Crimson on some of my favorite albums of the band. Passed today of colon cancer.
