MOONSHAKE

MOONSHAKE by Can.

Okay, we're back! This week we're having some fried and funky fare. First up is Can's Moonshake, from "Future Days." It's a frustrating song to blog, because if you know Can, you probably more than likely know and love this tune, and if you don't, it's hard to convince you to check it out. It's bent. You can filter it through Damo Suzuki's whispery, distracted vocals or Michael Karoli's equally mixed down guitar and think it's a laid back track. But Jaki Liebezeit's drumming is so propulsive, there's no real way to feel at ease. Plus there's a great weirdo electro solo, I don't even know what it is they're "playing." Probably the heaviest, deepest track we've featured here. Summer of 73. Hope you like it.
