was his best character.

I never really paid any attention to Kraftwerk. I think I've been missing out. Gonna go correct that right now.

I'd kind of forgotten about them and Mrs GoS really doesn't like techno-house-electronic stuff.

Thanks for posting the video's.

I remember selling the album back in the 1970's in England. Not everybody "got it".

In it he talks about Kraftwerk's influence on the NY music scene in the 70's. Like Afrika Bambaataa introducing the Rap world to Kraftwerk. Very interesting.

I remember the first time I saw/heard this. Blew me away.
