KRAFTWERK

As some of you know my favourite group is Kraftwerk.  Those of you in your 30's and older may remember who they are (The Model, Robots, Autobahn, etc), those of you under 30 will probably be saying "who?".

So the BBC will help answer that question this Friday night.
Check out BBC4 at 10.00pm on Friday night for an edited version of Kraftwerks last world tour 'Minimum:Maximum'.  
Dim the lights, turn up the volume (feel the thudding base in the Man Machine intro!) and enjoy  Very Happy

God no, can't bare enduring even more of them. Was bad enough in Miami.

Wish I'd never heard them either. As if Miami wasn't enough had to listen to them from my hotel room in Denmark earlier this year. Listening to Kraftwerk is almost as bad as riding Phoenix in the 3rd row.  Wink

Magic , you really like pushing the envelope, don't you....

I've just dug Trans Europe Express out of YouTube to give it a spin, and going on that I have to say I'd sooner listen to Kraftwerk over My Chemical Romance any day! Smile

My only complaint about TEE is that there's no way the train in the video is an "express"...I don't know about other people here, but I've been on stoppers that go faster than that! RazzTwisted Evil

I remember "The Model" by Kraftwerk being number 1, and quite liked it, but don't remember any other hits by them.
