Tago mago: permission to dream - 101 (1st edition.)

Finally, a brilliant exploration of the German rock band Can's 1971 album Tago Mago .

This hugely unique and influential album deserves close analysis from a fan, rather than a musicologist.

Novelist Alan Warner details the concrete music we hear on the album, how it was composed, executed and recorded - including the history of the album in terms of its release, promotion and art work.

This tale of Tago Mago is also the tale of a young man obsessed with record collecting in the dark and mysterious period of pop music before Google.
