Damn I love these albums TOO much and I just got into them recently. I only bought Trans-Europe Express the other day but it's already imbedded in my brain, probably coz I listen to it during the day and then when I'm going to sleep.

Much as I love Autobahn, surely Trans-Europe Express is their greatest masterpiece?

I know for sure that's what I'll be listening to on my European travels through Switzerland and Germany next week Hopefully I'll have Computer World by then too.

Trans-Europe Express for me - I think it's their most entertaining and satisfying album by far. Autobahn is a ground-breaking and inluential song, but does anyone ever actually listen to it? (just watch - the next twenty posts will be people stating that they listen to it all the time).

Trans-Europe and Man-Machine usually are in fairly regular rotation on my turn-table, Autobahn, almost never...

Definitely Trans-Europe Express
But I would say Computer World is their undisputed masterpiece.

T.E.E. and that's their masterpiece

trans europe express.I do have on my player trans europe,electric cafe,le tour de france ep,and computer world. Has anyone heard the "expo" ep?I think I may pick that up.What about that soundtracks cd.Any good?

i dunno if i can pick just one album that's better than the others.

i don't like their latest. it's the only album of theirs i've heard and not enjoyed.

i DO know i can't wait for their reissues to come out next year.

What's that u say about reissues? I need more info!

kinaldo said:

Me too. Hadn't heard of these.

As much as Autobahn and TEE are the groundbreakers, I find I put on Man Machine most of all. Every song is so cool and fun.

it's not much to go on, but i heard a rumor that astralwerks was putting out the reissues, then i went to kraftwerk's web site and they have this up:

Trans-Europe Express is funky!

Trans-Europe Express

Total groundbreaker.

Influenced countless genres, sub-genres, etc.

Helped change modern music.

are there any lyrics/ singing on trans-europe express (the album)? i've often thought of getting this cd. what is it like?

GangstaFam said:

well, all i know is, there have been rumblings on another music site i check out, and there was a link to the kraftwerk site to show that the reissues are in the pipeline...they're guesstimating that the reissues should be released early next year. hopefully this is true!
