    Live In Brighton 1975 showcases a band at the height of their immense power. [Jan 2022, p.91]

    This is an instrumental, blown-out, prog-rock tour de force that shows why CAN were and still are considered to be one of the best and perhaps one of the most influential groups that came out of Germany's incredibly vibrant psychedelic music scene in the late 1960s. [Dec 2021-Feb 2022, p.152]

    What's surprising is how structured it is, even if little will have been recognisable to devotees. The pleasures lie not only in lengthy stretches where they lock together instinctively. ... It's also in the tension leading to these moments. [Jan 2022, p.38]

    Where “Quantum Physics” is whispery and diffuse, “Brighton 75 Fünf” is emphatic and visceral, hammering at the edges of its central theme until they’re sharp enough to draw blood. The most thrilling moment comes when they abandon the roadmap entirely.

    There's a fair number of meandering moments, but the parts that actually go places are something to behold.
