Can special #4. The fourth and one but last part of a series of programmes about the German band Can. In this broadcast Can lands into conflict situations; Holger Czukay leaves the band but not really. New members Rosko Gee and Reebop Kwaku Baah have some opinions of their own. In the end this doesn’t only produce the usual frustrations but also a ‘forbidden record’ and Can suspends himself till further notice.
In 1986 Malcolm Mooney found a plane ticket in a chair and this seemed the right time – ‘Rite-time’ for a reunion and a beautiful rounded ending. Today ‘on stage’: Irmin Schmidt, Holger Czukay, Michael Karoli, Jaki Liebezeit, Roskee Gee, Reebop Kwaku Baah and Malcolm Mooney. The ever-present mother’s heart: Hildegard Schmidt.
