There's a new CAN book out tomorrow : http://louderthanwar.com/rob-young-irmin-schmidt-gates-open/

I never got round to reading the old CAN box book, was that one any good? I guess this one is more in depth.

The obligatory Limited Edition version is insanely priced as usual : https://coles-books.co.uk/signed-books/special-limited-editions/all-gates-open-the-biography-of-can-limited-edition-by-irmin-schmidt-and-rob-young


Well I picked this up (in non limited edition .. should that me Unlimited Editon?)

It seems good. Not read it yet but it’s a sizeable tome. In fact this is split essentially into two books, the first being regular sort of rock biography, the second is called Can Kiosk, and is more of a metaphor for their music. The late, great Mark E Smith is interviewed alongside Bobby Gillespie and other names.
