anyone have the Can DVD?

I think I'm content with the VHS tape from the box set (which contains said documentary, the one that spans their whole career). But I'd love to see someone else's copy sometime for the new recent documentary.

if you've never seen "free concert" by all means do.

it's worth it overall, seconding dleone's pitchfork review. lots of incredible late 60's early 70's performance footage, although in typical documentary style it's too frequently faded down to run quietly in the background while some dj starts babbling about Can's influence on his work etc., the whistle test footage shows Czukay doing tablecore (including using a wire tapper to rhythmically interpolate shortwave radio samples) while the band obliviously rocks out like disco Traffic. some fun shots of Schmidt bickering with Czukay.

I refer of course to the 1 minute video shot by and starring the eternally unbearable bald fuckeroo Brian Eno.

I'm telling you, this 60-second Eno pukefest is the worst thing I have seen in my life, ever, period, no doubt about it. And in this lifetime I've endured everything from multiple episodes of 'Love Boat' and 'Fantasy Island' and 'Family Feud' to the complete oeuvre of Leni Riefenstahl and 'Birth Of A Nation' and this Eno CRAP-OLA is more torturous, more idiotic, more excruciating than anything I can possibly imagine.

How bad is it? If your 12-year old student turned this in as a video project, you'd give the pretentious little fucker a big fat "F". It makes the worst excesses of the likes of David Byrne or Momus seem (well, almost) dignified. Even if you are an Eno fan, you will still want to punch him in the face after seeing this.

WHY THE FUCK is this on the DVD??????

I've been pretty much indifferent to the existence of Eno, but after seeing this, I'm praying for his painful demise from this plane of existence.

I've only watched the documentary disc so far, but I've enjoyed almost every minute. The Eno thing is too short to be truly annoying.

I am just getting around to watching a 1:27 Can dvd (is this "the" Can dvd?) on youtube and I had never actually seen the members of Can talking before. It's kinda weird! I'm not even all the way done because i like to watch in little bits when I have 10-15 here and there, but in the meantime i have some questions

Does Irmin Schmidt ever shut up?
Why does he act like he's in charge of everything all the time? Was he? He's so bossy, esp during the Vernal Equinox performance. I can't get over him karate chopping in that insane metal vest.
Was Jaki recognized during that time as being extraordinarily good?
In addition to his guitar playing, is Michael Karoli recognized for being an impossibly hot 70s man? So far he seems a little full of himself (no surprise) but not a bad person.

this is the one I'm watching
