CAN Live Seriescontinues with LIVE IN ARLES 1975.A six-track album spanning a double vinyl and CD due 25th September via mute is announced with the single 'Arles 75 Drei' on Tuesday 23rd of June.

This performance took place in the Roman Théâtre Antique in Arles in 1975. The band played as part of a festival that included other artists such as Nico and Kevin Ayres. The lineup consisted of the core four members: Irmin Schmidt, Michael Karoli, Jaki Liebezeit and Holger Czukay.

As with the rest of the series, no show is alike any other and this continues the unique document of Can’s live onstage improvisation that hangs on the smallest element of a live recording and often times, not even that, giving brand new recordings to a band who never seem to be finished.

LIVE IN ARLES 1975 is the seventh album in the acclaimed live series from German experimental rock pioneers CAN, overseen by founding member Irmin Schmidt and released on Mute.

Widely regarded as one of their finest performances, even by the band members themselves, this concert took place at the Roman Théâtre Antique in Arles. The lineup consisted of the core four members: Schmidt, Michael Karoli, Jaki Liebezeit and Holger Czukay. The band played as part of a festival that included other artists such as Nico and Kevin Ayres.

The recording was unearthed from the Spoon Records vaults, after long only existing through the stories of those who were there. To celebrate its first release, it feels only fitting that the sleeve notes include first-hand accounts from locals who attended the show.

As with the rest of the series, this release captures the unique nature of CAN’s onstage improvisations. Every show was different, and these recordings offer a fresh look at a band whose creative process never truly finished.
