Can - Tago Mago (1971)

As anyone into Can already knows, this album is a voyage. The first LP locks you in with some insanely deep grooves (Paperhouse/Mushroom/Oh Yeah/Halleluwah) and then sends you into a cave of experimental collage with Aumgn and PekingO. By the time you get to album closer Bring Me Coffee Or Bring Me Tea you feel like you just came out of that wacky tunnel in Charlie And The Chocolate Factory. My goofy ramblings aside, this album is a masterpiece.

2014 US reissue from Spoon Records/Mute.
