Can's inarguable importance in so many fields of music from experimental to production-minded electronic music and so on has spanned generations, and these lost recordings represent an amazing mother lode to any Can enthusiast and certainly should hold more than enough interesting moments for even a curious new listener".Læs anmeldelse

For dem, der mest har et flygtigt kendskab til den tyske musikscene i halvfjerdserne, er det måske en lidt stor og lettere eklektisk rodet mundfuld".
