I've tried, tried, tried, tried to like Space Shanty. It just doesn't strike me like the other Canterbury albums. OTOH, Tago Mago one of the greatest albums ever made in the history of rock music. Not even close ------------- There is no dark side in the moon, really... Matter of fact, it's all dark... |

Space Shanty for me. I'm afraid Can is not my cup of tea. I don't know what's so great about these lengthy sequences of monotonous rhythms and random noises. |

| I didn't like very much that Can, but it was before I buy the Lp. Listening to the each side separately and taking your time to do it is a real pleasure. A few months ago, I came back to vinyl. What to say ? Today I can spend a whole week listening to only one album. I'm sixteen again. |

Augm is the only song I can get into from Tago Mago, the rest is little more than random noise to me, but I love Space Shanty, one of Prog's great one-offs. ------------- The world of sound is certainly capable of infinite variety and, were our sense developed, of infinite extensions. -- George Santayana, "The Sense of Beauty" |

Tough call, love both. Went with Tago Mago... ------------- He neither drank, smoked, nor rode a bicycle. Living frugally, saving his money, he died early, surrounded by greedy relatives. It was a great lesson to me -- John Barrymore |

Voted for Tago Mago. Oddly it's far from my favourite Can album but we Can fans are an odd bunch. I think it is a tad less dated than Khan. Make sure you get the remaster not the old CD btw if you do fork out for it. |

I somehow can't find out how to vote in polls, it always says "You can not vote in this poll", otherwise I'd vote for Tago Mago... Anyway, as Can fans may gather here, can anybody tell me why on earth Irmin Schmidt is not on Progarchives? |
