This is actually a very interesting record in Can's discography: the only album in which we have both singers Malcolm Mooney and Damo Suzuki (alternate, not together). Being this a compilation of soundtrack music, some of the songs are incomplete (A-side), the only song that was complete was "She brings the rain", which I like very much but is probably the least similar to the classic Krautrock music Can usually offers in their albums. "Mother sky" would be an excellent track if its middle section wasn't so long (I know, this is Prog so the songs tend to be long but I prefer the ones that offer more rehearsed music than improvisation) and if it had a concise ending. This is in the very same level of Pink Floyd's "More", just a very average album nice enough to be part of a film (or several in this case). Not an indispensable material.

SONG RATING: Deadlock, 3 Tango whiskyman, 3 Deadlock (instrumental), 3 Don't turn the light on, leave me alone, 4 Soul desert, 4 Mother sky, 4 She brings the rain, 4

AVERAGE: 3.57

PERCENTAGE: 71.4

ALBUM RATING: 3 stars
