Product description

"Delay 1968" is a captivating compilation album by the pioneering German band Can, released in 1981 but recorded three years earlier, in 1968. This collection offers a unique glimpse into the band's early sound, featuring their original lead vocalist Malcolm Mooney, before the iconic Damo Suzuki joined the lineup. The album's seven tracks showcase Can's experimental and eclectic approach to rock music, blending elements of krautrock, psychedelic rock, and proto-punk. With a runtime of just 35 minutes, "Delay 1968" is a concise yet powerful journey through the band's formative years. The album's raw and energetic sound sets it apart from Can's later, more ambient works, making it a fascinating listen for both longtime fans and newcomers alike. Recorded before their debut album "Monster Movie," these tracks offer a rare opportunity to hear the band's early creative process and the foundation of their innovative sound.

This 2021 Limited Edition Reissue Remastered LP is pressed on Pink vinyl.

    For this version, the matrix is in text.SPOON 012 ASPOON 012 B. No dots or dashes at all. The audio quality is absolutely stunning. The label's the same as the initial pressing.

  • Missing Photo Mystery

    Can anyone explain why Malcolm Mooney's photo isn't on the printed inside?

  • Black Vinyl Repressing

    5 out of 5 stars
    DacrwCkuwvimDecember 26, 2024United States🇺🇸

    It seems like I've got a 'regular' repressing of this record - all the details line up, except my copy is on black vinyl.

  • Sound and Look Gem

    5 out of 5 stars

    Terrific sound! Fabulous appearance! Over the moon to own this gem in my collection!

  • Abrupt Album Ending

    3 out of 5 stars
    duboigmannMay 17, 2024United States🇺🇸

    Great album, though you can really tell it ends abruptly at the close of B2. Probably a pressing issue, in my opinion.
