5.0

Usual qualms with 33 1/3 books aside (i.e portions too focused on writers personal story in a way that left me wanting more about the album and less about his riding a train to get a record as a 15 year old), this is a solid issue of the series. A seminal album and you couldn't read this book without recognizing the authors deep love and knowledge for Tago Mago and Can in general. Pretty deep dive, so I'm not sure if this book would make sense if you aren't already a fan of the band (or ready to dive down the immensely rewarding rabbit hole of Can/krautrock).
