All new tracks that span the length of their career.
These are NOT outakes or bootleg sounding releases. They are comprised of finished tracks earmarked for projects that were not completed.

30 all new tracks compiled down by Irmin Schmidt from 50 hours of tape left on a shelf for over 30 years.

Absolutely essential for all fans of Can!

Spoon Records and Mute are delighted to announce the release of the
long awaited 3CD box set of unreleased studio, soundtrack and live
material from Can. THE LOST TAPES was curated by Irmin Schmidt
and Daniel Miller, and compiled by Schmidt and long time collaborator
Jono Podmore.
When the legendary Can studio in Weilerswist was sold to the
German Rock N Pop Museum, they bought everything, including the
army mattresses that covered the walls for sound protection, and
relocated it to Gronau. While dismantling the studio, master tapes
were found and stored in the Spoon archive. With barely legible
labeling, no one was sure what was on these until Irmin and Jono
started to go through over 30 hours of music. What they found was
years of archived material, not outtakes, but rather tracks which had
been shelved for a variety of reasons.
Can's influence is well known and far-reaching and the impact they
made on music is felt today as keenly as it ever has been. They
themselves have always been impossible to classify and reflecting
this, the scope of artists who in recent years have cited Can as a
major influence is varied from John Lydon to Radiohead, The Fall to
Portishead

The box set is great, it's inexpensive and filled with lots of cool unreleased tracks. If you're a Can fan this is a must have! Don't wait too long to pick this up as it will be going out of print shortly as it is a limited run!
