'A real treat for Can fans.' Spectator All Gates Open is the definitive story of the most influential and revered avant-garde band of the late twentieth century: Can. In part one, Rob Young gives us the full biography- an in-depth and exhilarating history of the band. In part two, Irmin Schmidt presents an oral history of Can, drawing on extensive interviews with many musicians who cite the band as an influence, including Bobby Gillespie and Mark E. Smith. An essential book for Can fans, All Gates Open is illustrated throughout with previously unseen art, photographs and ephemera from the band's archive.
