Live in Aston 1977

The acclaimed Can live series continues with the release of Live in Aston 1977, available via Mute and Future Days (the new EU label created by Spoon Records). The series was overseen by founding member Irmin Schmidt and producer/engineer René Tinner, who delicately worked on restoring the archival recordings to the best quality for current modern technology.

This record captures the band’s 1977 performance in Aston and features Schmidt (keyboard and synths), Jaki Liebezeit (drums), Michael Karoli (guitars), Holger Czukay (wave receiver and spec.sounds), plus Rosko Gee (bass), who appears for the first time in the series. This release features sleeve notes by former Sex Pistol, Glen Matlock, sharing his first-hand experience of witnessing Can's live show.
