I saw them live in 1981 & 1991 in Manchester and it was an education, both those gigs, of course, they shipped over their entire studio, now it is 4 laptops, quite amazing how they have always been in front where technology is concerned.

6 years since last album, I seem to recall that they stated now that everything had been transferred over to digital format output would be much greater!!!

What is sadly lacking is a compilation of all their singles now that would be a must for any electronic fan.

Yes I sort of had the feeling that it's 'cut off' or maybe 'to be continued..'.
Anyway interesting to learn a bit more about the early days.
Is this really the first journalist to have noticed the link between 'Autobahn' to 'TEE', or is Bartos being 'funny'? :rolleyes:

The sound on the original Kraftwerk cds are reasonable, but the volume is very low level. Wonder the likelyhood of extra tracks included??
