Kraftwerk - Machina Speculatrix


Without a doubt the world of music would be a very different place were it not for the genius of Kraftwerk. Their electronic sound was unique back in the 1970's, even catching the ear of David Bowie who at one stage wanted them as his backing band and they've inspired many people over the past 35 or so years.
My earliest memory of them was hearing The Model at a disco in 1981. I was 8 years old and it was played after Meatloaf's Bat Out Of Hell......even then I can remember thinking 'WOW' and I remain a fan to this day.
Recommended listening: The Man Machine, Electric Cafe and The Mix, although purists will scream and stamp their little feet saying Autobahn or Trans Euro Express.......
