Kraftwerk - Trans Europe Express (1977)
On Vinyl More 70’s magic. Kraftwerk was so important to me at around the late 70’s early 80’s. While “Computer World” did the miles on my walkman, this beauty helped me usher in Bowie’s Berlin period.
commentsSticking to a recent Germanic theme and my recent re-acquaintance with Krautrock, I simply couldn’t leave this on the shelf and unplayed this evening.
I remember (a bit too vividly unfortunately) walking down the main street of Levin in the early 80’s, listening to this album through the headphones of my Sony Walkman (on cassette), and wearing some god-awful technicolour dreamcoat thingy (something called a Jak Pak from the Aussie markets?).
It would have turned some heads but I didn’t give a flying fuck. Life and music, didn’t get much better back then. And I’d finally found my cool.
Counting never sounded so good!. “eins zwei drei vier fünf sechs sieben acht”
