4 stars Although not an easy listen (if you're only into symphonic prog , you probably will not like/understand this. The first side is made of three accessible tracks and the second is 18.5 minutes splendid epic, all of thesenumbers are quite enjoyable and do not require effort to get into. The second disc is another cup of tea and not so much accessible. The Aumgn tracks starts off the famous meditation aum-sound and ends in total mayhem/chaos not unlike floyd in Saucerfull of Secrets or Ummagumma in about 17.5minutes . Side 4 (as it was called in the double vinyl) starts as Mayhem still happeing and IMOHO is probably the weak point of this essential krautrock. The last track is however on of the most pleasant from Can.
