Can put out SO much sound for a four-piece, yet never sound too "cluttered," or too busy. I have been loving their music since first hearing it in the 80's (high school.). Sub-SCRIBED!
Bass player is out of sight man. The drummer is groovin and that dude on that space machine thing is far out ! The guitar player with those jazzy funky riffs.
Jaki is so steady and propulsive. He's like a locomotive leading the band and he never exits the pocket. One of the great drummers. He'd have been great in a funk band but it's even more interesting to see him in an experimental band like Can. Legendary stuff.
You won’t have to wait cause I’m pretty sure that bands like Thee Oh Sees, Ty Segall, Slift and a few more have sited Can as a major influence. In fact, Thee Oh Sees (Oh Sees or whatever they’re called these days ) did a cover of Soul Desert on one of their albums.
Damo was so magic in this band. Malcolm too. They really required a special type of singer, no wonder they couldn't find number 3. It's a miracle they found 2!
I saw them just 4 weeks before this in London on my 18th birthday. THey were incredible and unique. Saw them a few more times after this but the only one with Damo.
When I was 18 (1979) I was discovering the magic of disco at the live all male burlesque in Times Square. But my heart truly is with prog/kraut and Can was invisible to me until now.
I came to Can from the punk direction as opposed to the prog rock or Grateful Dead direction, (although I saw the Dead 7 or 8 times between about 1988 and 91 and agree that they had their moments of brilliance.). Can were just magnificent and seminal in developing rock and roll thought; a huge influence on bands in the post punk era like the Fall, (check out their 1985 song ,"I Am Damo Suzuki".), and obviously on industrial outfits like Throbbing Gristle and Einstuerzende Neubauten.
@@krisscanlon4051 Yeah I'm just now reading All Gates Open and apparently they all gave him shit for his bass playing in the mid 70s, which came as a surprise to me.
I want to hear everything Can ever recorded before Covid snuffs me out. But that includes every live recording. Then my life is complete. Happy to go then, to Canheaven.
@@lucalone Grateful Dead have never done anything for me , Can and Crimson in another league like and Can probably in their own little tier (of course its all so subjective). Just recall being like 13/14 in school me and my friend got into Can and blew our minds as we were making electronic music and in a band they gave us so much inspiration .
@@JasonNaas You have to keep in mind that this is 1973. TVs were small at that time so it was better to do close-ups, if they had filmed the band in total it would have been hard to see anything. But now in HD-times we complain - about something that can't be changed anymore.
Thanks very much to this adventurous cameraman! Amazing footage of such an amazing band, Jaki in shades on his blue kit with just the one kick drum, this really was a peak . Primo, thanks so much for posting this.
It's like we are playing this ourselves! I love it! Saw Can in England 1973. Sadly Damo was no more.....😔 Took my mum in for the end of show. She was speechless 😁 I have this on in background while reading All gates open The story of Can (RobYoung / Irmin Schmidt). Perfect...
Wtf? I’ve been listening to CAN since the late 1970’s, and I’ve never seen this video. I bet a big part of the reason is that I’m American, and videos shot in the PAL format were difficult for the US and others in the west to convert back to the format that was forced on us, NTSC. Another reason is that I started listening to CAN long before my other music loving peers started to get into them, so even their LP were difficult for me to find! Let’s remind those younger than us (I mean me) that they don’t know how good they have it now as far as access to music goes.
This recording was only broadcasted once, and only in france. It's only nowadays, with them opening some of their archive to the public, that we have access to this rare footage.
thanks for posting. We're forever grateful!! Spoon-fed pretty pictures and as of yet non-existent symbolic tomfoolery maybe around the next best corridor. Enough rambling on my part. Great sounds from The Can.
No, but I was at the South Parade Pier gig they gave earlier on that tour March 3rd. Funnily enough you saw them at the last English gig on the 18th March, then on the 22nd they did this at the Bataclan!
Intéressant...! Regardez le public dans la fosse,tout le monde est assis ,personne bouge alors que le morceau est plutôt "dynamique"!!! Cela est toujours étrange aujourd'hui d 'assister à un concert "rock" (même dans la lignée "progressif") et de voir des fauteuils dans la fosse et des gens assis!
Souvent le public était assis ou carrément couché pendant les enregistrements concerts de Pop 2 au Bataclan... Il y avait de la place.. C'était la bonne époque et beaucoup étaient foncedé ! 🤣👍🤞
Great video. I love krautrock retro aspect. Although Interesting most I've heard lacks musicianship or song writing. (Guru guru) is Krautrock. The German Hard rock group scorpians started 65. Ive heard people say lonesome crow(first album 1972) is krautrock??. Sounds five years late
![Can | Halleluwah | Live | 1971 [50th Anniversary Restoration]](/img/n.gif)
I was there, not even 15! it left a big impression on me: 50 years later I remember pretty well
Amazing! I cannot imagine.
Jaki and Holger were friends of mine....may they rest in peace!
везёт вам
how I envy you. And people have very little to envy.
Damo gone now too. There will never be another group like Can, ever again ❤
When did damo pass

The 70s was such a great time for experimental music. We have so many great acts to choose from. Thankfully it was continued up until today.
best drummer of all time
Totally agreed
he's so good
Human drum machine.
Wrong. Bruford it is.
@@ricardooliva4034 lol not even remotely close but ok
I do not say this lightly, This was so ahead of its time. Wouldn’t even know where to start, this just was not something you’d see in 1973.
Jaki drumming is beyond perfect.
This is like space tribal funk. Just discovering Can this week. My god they are amazing.
Awesome!
welcome to the party! I was super late discovering Can. They really were fantastic.
Greatest improvisational band of all time. (Maybe best band overall too)
ege bam yasi, future days, tago mago are all lps worth grabbing!!
Yes... excellent music and excellent live performance!
I keep watching it... its like good sex with your Lover
I hope there's a younger gen who comes across this and goes, let's just stay on the beat..... forever.. #kosmische

Was at same gig ( The Rainbow ?) -the best,most perfect, live gig I ever went to........remember the stage set....palm trees + wind machine !
@@fleetingglimpse5663 Yes i remember!
A present-day 18 year-old would just run away from this show - how sad

Ba - ta - CAN ! Ha ha
I remember this programme on French tv, loads of good things
I was there, it was a great trip...
Can is an absolutely amazing musical experience hands down
Jaki Liebezeit man
Liebe zur Musik.......
Hadn't heard those songs. Danke. Can was high octane drums and guitar with "Mary, Mary," mixed in and "You Doo Right" and so much more.
Another Time, OK……But what a Masterpiece.
How wonderful... The best band ever existed
Rolling Stones
Memphis jug bang
Can
ELP Rare Bird King Crimson Focus Renaissance. The five best in that order.
@@Wane34565 I'm glad your wish wasn't true😊😊
Thanks for uploading: one of the three greats for me Can, Faust and Amon Duul 2.. Brilliant.
Stockhausen picked out Can and was then told two had trained with him, Jacki and Holger I. believe.
Yep, thems er pretty much my 3 fav German bands....
And Neu
Holger’s playing on Sing Swan Song is phenomenal.
The bass lines are hypnotic on Swan Song...played more like ryhtm guitar in between
He thought he was amateur hence Rosko Gee...crazy was amazing musician all the way around.
Holger isn’t an orthodox bassist. Lots of bizarre shapes, flamenco style finger picking, dissonance, and the occasional tic-tac funk playing.
@@krisscanlon4051 Yeah I'm just now reading All Gates Open and apparently they all gave him shit for his bass playing in the mid 70s, which came as a surprise to me.
Y kno when the chips are down and all looks lost there is CAN
You said it!
you said this a year ago, and it is even more relevant now. Thank you internet stranger.
That's true!
I want to hear everything Can ever recorded before Covid snuffs me out. But that includes every live recording. Then my life is complete. Happy to go then, to Canheaven.
Incredible! Thank god for these old filmings!
The homie Damo looking money as hell with those aviators on
Best improvisational band of all time
Hear Hear!!!!!!!!!!!!
¿XG"
ever heard the grateful dead in 1972 ???
@@lucalone Best improvisers in rock are the Dead ('68-'74), King Crimson ('72-'74) and of course Can.
No doubt. Simultaneously wild and incredibly tight. Just genius, no one else has come close to their vibe.

This looks and sounds great! CAN were so ahead of their time.
I saw them live, twice in 1974 bham town hall.
very very good.........................................................................................
Simply incredible. Wish I could see the whole show
me too.
I wish I could see the whole band, instead of close-ups of elbows and whatnot.
@@JasonNaas Let's face it, we've never seen a stringprint on a bassist's finger before in any live footage ever :)

@@JasonNaas Can't agree with that. Very good footage for me and it perfectly fits into CAN's Avant-garde style.
Amazing band---------
Damo is spittin BARS!!!
anarchy at bataclan!!! Great performance without any compromise!
very nice, I like it a lot, viva MEXICO
best video on CZcams
Amazing Kraut Rock from Germany
Play it like Jaki!
Can did it so well. They are at rnr's peek.

Legendary!

The legendary Can Studio from a former cinema in Cologne-Weilerswist was dismantled and rebuilt in the Rock & Pop Museum, Gronau, Germany
Holy shit, between this and genesis with peter in his red dress and fox mask, bataclan 1973 must have been LIT
Marvelous simply and actually
Dear uploader, thank you so much. Incredible.
hahah I love this style of filming.
Thats how they was when I saw them in 74 and 75 live birmingham town hall.
cozmic love.... thanks!

Vielleicht "Vibravoid" ........
Valley Gurrl ROCK!!!!
Go Lillies 2020 X2*
wish i could’ve seen this band live
I saw this Band live. 03.Feb.1972, Cologne. 8000 Fans. It was unbelievable.
Masterminds...
super cool, by any chance, do you have the whole presentation?
I'm sorry, those are the only clips i have. Would have uploaded the full thing if i had it :(
Saw them at that time at the top rank Bristol anyone else there?
No, but I was at the South Parade Pier gig they gave earlier on that tour March 3rd. Funnily enough you saw them at the last English gig on the 18th March, then on the 22nd they did this at the Bataclan!
Weird but excellent
Love! Thanks for putting it out.. The sound doesn't really come remastered. :)
Couldn't do so much about the sound because it already was very compressed and bad. Maybe i'll give it another try one time
😮😊😊

Intéressant...! Regardez le public dans la fosse,tout le monde est assis ,personne bouge alors que le morceau est plutôt "dynamique"!!! Cela est toujours étrange aujourd'hui d 'assister à un concert "rock" (même dans la lignée "progressif") et de voir des fauteuils dans la fosse et des gens assis!
That's because a UFO is on stage on high level ...or the public might be too high ... which would be the same .
Souvent le public était assis ou carrément couché pendant les enregistrements concerts de Pop 2 au Bataclan... Il y avait de la place.. C'était la bonne époque et beaucoup étaient foncedé ! 🤣👍🤞
Il n'y avait pas de fauteuils dans la fosse.... On était assis par terre, les jambes allongées ou en tailleur.
Ils étaient tous stone
Comme il se doit devant un truc aussi puissant 😵💫
best ever the Snoops ! Snooooops ! Snoops !
I bet that gig smelled like Bob Marley's sock drawer. Big time.
ダモさんかわいい
Fuck Yeah!!!!
Trippin'
Original punk and techno
so experimental
Hard to bear....
Музыка классная . А операторская работа вообще в первоклассная
" Krautmaschine " läuft !
wooooooo
You want to learn how to jam ? Here we are !
Valley gurll Rock!!!!!!!!!¿
Worst audio quality imaginable and it’s still heavenly
French TV Archives often cut off all the high frequencies, sadly nothing can really be done about it.
Worst audio? Haha You don´t know amon-duul-bootlegs! 😀
No worse than the audio cassettes I played in my car throughout the nineties as my Can dealer got me hooked with his free mixtapes
The audio quality is ok i think...
Sau geil
