The Inner Space is the stuff of legend. This obscurenotes
outfit is best known as the antecessor band of Can
and not much is known about them except it featured
the core members of Can (Irmin Schmidt, Holger
Czukay, Michael Karoli and Jaki Liebezeit) and lasted
just a few months before renaming themselves The
Can and releasing 'Monster Movie'.
They left two ultra-obscure seven inches as their only
recorded legacy and only the first of them is credited to
The Inner Space, it contained two songs taken from the
soundtrack of 1969's underground film Agilok & Blubbo.
Originally released by the the german Vogue label in 1969,
it currently fetches prices around the 300 euro mark in the
collector's circuit.
This great reissue contains not only the aforementioned
singles but the complete soundtrack to Peter F. Scheneider's
offbeat political satire Agilok & Blubbo. Previously unavailable
until now, the original mastertapes of this soundtrack have
been stored in the archives of legendary german producer
and music publisher Hans Wewerka who produced the
recording sessions back in 1969.
Here you can hear history in the making, the first step of a
group of musicians who'll to achieve fame, success and
recognition over the 70s, helping define a sound (often
called kraut rock) that has been highly infuential to this days.
Those familiar with Can's output will recognize some of the
band's characteristic sound, albeit in a embrionary form.
Songs like 'Agilok & Blubbo' or 'Kamera Song' already hint
at their later pop brilliance whereas the short cues and
extended free jams found elsewhere in this soundtrack
reminds us from the heterogeneus roots of a bunch of
musicians coming from rock, jazz and avant-garde
backgrounds.
All in all, an excellent glimpse into the early stages of an
innovative band developing it's own musical language.
