This was originally released as Limited Edition in 1974 with a different cover, not as many tracks as what is on this disc, and was limited to 15,000 copies. Both albums contain the cutting room floor outtakes of tracks – which there were many – from over the years as Can had the luxury of recording their material in their own studio. The obvious mistake (or trick) was to take a ton of these so-called studio riffs, bundle them all into one giant track, and call it “Cutaway”, but it comes off like a hideous, never-ending blooper reel. Most of the time the goofs simply come and go, and sometimes showcase other points of view in a rather light-hearted fashion – like the “Ethnological Forgery Series” tracks. There are quite a few tracks which do seem to stand on their own, especially the bookends (“Gomorrha” and “Ibis”) and a few of the spots with original vocalist Malcolm Mooney (“The Empress and The Ukraine King”, “Mother Upduff”, “Connection”). Fan interest only.
