Kraftwerk - Live on Radio Bremen

[Bellyheart]

Not sure how many people are into Kraftwerk, but this stuff is different than most their catalog. Describing it as Kraftwerk meets Black Sabbath is pretty spot on. It's heavy and awesome. The album starts off with the gnarliest quack ever heard.

early kraftwerk was so good.this is awesome,
ive seen this before and always thought it wasn't really made by them even though it sounds like them (and yes, sabbath! ).
i dont think its listed in their catalog.

Wasn't this Organisation? It's pretty cool nonetheless, flute through ring mod and tape delay.

More Neu then KW, but very interesting either way.

My bad, it's not Organisation.

More Neu then KW, but very interesting either way.

Very Neu!

Michael Rother and Klaus Dinger went on to form Neu! after they left this KW lineup.

Recorded live for Radio Bremen in June 1971, whilst Ralf Hutter was taking a 6 month brief break from the band, and instead features the Rother/Dinger/Schneider line up.

Yeah, that's what I thought. I knew the members of Neu! were still in the band, but thought perhaps you had more research. The song is so different that I'll believe anything about it. Regardless, it's a great song. Never heard a noise like that in my life.
