Kraftwerk - Das Model.

Absolute legends! Influenced so many electronic bands that followed in the 80s.
Can't speak highly enough about Kraftwerk.
Never got to see them and now without Florian Schneider it wouldn't be quite the same.
Shame they are famous, to most, for the worst song they ever released ... IMO (das Model)
 
Seen them four times. One of those bands with such a mysterious aura around them.

Never quite know much they much they are actually playing live or what is pre-recorded.

Radioactivity is the best album in my opinion.
 
Only Ralf Hutter remains.
A great group.
Innovative beyond measure.
Unfortunately, never seen them.
Think it was 2015 and had phone, laptop and tablet on the go trying for tickets. Not a chance.
A mate got to see them and his review of the gig? They were ok!!🤦‍♂️
OK!???!! They're bloody kraftwerk, they're immense.
Love Space Lab and Computer love
 
I am a KW obsessive, have seen them many times in various countries. Off to Bonn next May to see them, which is also the last day of the Bundesliga so will try and get to a game as several teams in that area. Hearing Computer World in 1981 totally changed my outlook on music. Probably my favourite band ever.

The only record of theirs I have ever owned, but really enjoying listening to this concert in between R̲a̲ttus No̲rvegicus̲.
Way ahead of their time for my Punk/New Wave little brain to fully appreciate at the time.
In two parts.

Never took to them but I will always appreciate a band that makes you think.
 
Seen them twice in the last seven or eight years, once outside at a festival and once in doors in a theatre, both times in 3D and both time brilliant. Like has been said, hard to say whats live and what's recorded but so what. An iconic group I never thought I'd ever see.
 
Regret never having seen the classic line-up on their 1981 tour. Just a bit too young. Since Florian Schneider left there is no longer a single member that has been in the band throughout, though Ralf Hutter can sort of claim that.

Ditto ! They're my two favourites. Weird !
 
Groundbreaking and yet completely shit at the same time, which takes some skill...

Funnily enough I saw Gary Newman 'live' earlier on this year.... I was amazed to discover that he actually had fans...
