Moonbeam's Cult Classic of the Day- Can's Yoo Doo Right

I first heard this song last year, and it changed the way I hear music. Rarely have I heard a song with such an innately human, primal underbelly. "Yoo Doo Right" is a monstrous opus so amazing that it precludes the possibility of excessive superlatives. It's definitely not for everyone and is surely an acquired taste for many, but if you want to hear something way left of center that pushes the boundaries of musical limitations, this song will do it. My favorite bits are Malcolm Mooney's deranged and passionate vocals, the deceptively catchy bass lines, and some of the most disarming guitar playing I've ever been blessed to hear, coming in right at the 2:55 mark.

The song itself is over 20 minutes in length, but there is enough in there to keep my attention. I found a clip of the first 10 minutes here:

Love some Can but didn't see this album cover before. I didn't know they had a late 60s album.
