Product Overview
Can - Ege Bamyasi (Standard LP Vinyl) Ege Bamyası is the third studio album by German krautrock band Can, originally released as an LP in 1972 by United Artists. The album contains the single "Spoon", which charted in the Top 10 in Germany, largely because of its use as the theme of a German TV thriller mini-series called Das Messer (The Knife).
The success of the single allowed Can to move to a better studio, in which they recorded Ege Bamyası.
The album cover shows a photograph of a can of "Ege Bamyası" (Turkish for "Aegean okra").
In the August 2006 Uncut interview with David Stubbs, Irmin Schmidt explained: "The can on the cover is not a silly concept idea. It was a can Jaki had found in a Turkish shop. There, the word Can means something like Life. There's no concept behind titles like "Vitamin C" and "I'm So Green", but certainly we were very organic in our sound by now."
