Can, also known as Inner Space (also, with additional tracks, as Legendary Can), is the tenth studio album by experimental rock band Can, released in 1979. Former bassist Holger Czukay's involvement with this album was limited to tape editing.[1][5] It was Can's last album before the reunion album Rite Time, ten years later, and was released after the band's break-up.[6]
