Description
CHRISTMAS SPECIAL RE-LISTED AND REDUCED STARTING PRICE !!!! KLANG DJ 101 MINT CONDITION (Re-listed and REDUCED) Kraftwerk celebrate Europe's romantic past and shimmering future with a glistening panorama of elegance and decadence, travel and technology. The infinite vistas of ‘Europe Endless’ and ‘Endless Endless’ bookend the album, which includes the unsettling Kafka-esque fable ‘The Hall Of Mirrors’ and the hilarious ‘Showroom Dummies’ - Kraftwerk's elegantly ironic reply to critiques of their deadpan manner.
But it is the streamlined rhythmic locomotive of ‘Trans Europe Express’ which dominates with its doppler-effect melodic swerves and hypnotic, pneumatic, piston-pumping rhythm. Along with its sister track, ‘Metal On Metal’ which New York DJ Afrika Bambaataa would re-construct five years later for his own seminal ‘Planet Rock’, this milestone in avant-pop modernism later becomes a crucial influence on the early pioneers of hip-hop & sampling, electro and industrial music. Poetry in motion.
VERY rare slight ware on spine due to storage and minor crease corner of sleeve, other than that mint. Vinyl Album Side A 1. Trans Euro Express 1977 Side B 1. Trans-Europe Express Instr .
