Regarding this record: CAN: “Soundtracks” (Japan Record – JAL-2303) First original Japanese pressing in TOP condition. Consisting of music written for various films, ‘Soundtracks’ is Can’s second album, a departure in sound from the more psychedelic jams of their first album, ‘Monster Movie’ and instead a burgeoning exploration into more electronic moments of experimentalism, rhythmic repetition and mystery. The album marks the departure of the band's original vocalist Malcolm Mooney, who sings on two tracks, to be replaced by new member Damo Suzuki. Mooney’s vocals appear in fleeting existence, whilst Can’s brilliance is evermore at play. Malcolm’s final recording with Can, “Soul Desert” is certainly one of the highlights. His voice sounds stretched to the very edge of its limits. Given Can’s habit of editing down long jams, he could well be at the end of a jam session that has gone on for literally hours. Whatever the reason, his scorched delivery really invokes desert dryness and the sparse tribal groove the band lock into behind him is another classic tight Can groove “Mother Sky” is fourteen and a half minutes of utter devastation. Probably the most scorched, searching guitar work Karoli ever unleashed. Here sounds like he is unpicking the skies with his fingers. Underneath that, Holger and Jaki fuse into an inhuman rhythm machine playing some secret, primal, snapping, tribal stomp. When Jaki begins unleashing drum rolls, it is physically impossible not to move in some way. So essential. Top copy 1st original Japanese pressing.
