RIP

RIP Jaki Liebezeit

Can's majesty was that they were all equal contributors, but some contributions were more equal than others and Jaki's drumming was the off-setting otherworldly counterpoint that separated the band from another psychedelic outfit or another jazz-tinged groove group.  He was the real godfather of intelligent dance music, emphasis on dance, as the intelligence was effortlessly translated to a language of pure alien grace that all could understand.
