Along with their experimental bent and avant-garde background, Can also had one of the funkiest rhythm sections in rock history. Bassist Holger Czukay and phenomenal drummer Jaki Liebezeit laid down polyrhythmic grooves that were more James Brown than Karlheinz Stockhausen. Q-Tip, Kanye, and Earl Sweatshirt know what's up, just like The Flaming Lips and This Mortal Coil.
