>Don't you think the output speaks for itself? Autobahn to Electric Cafe >with >Wolfgang and Karl (or maybe he joined just after Autobahn) and Electric >Cafe >to... eeh, nothing really, with Henning and Fritz. No. The output is determined by Ralf and Florian. Bartos and Flur did not decide when Kraftwerk should make an album Rob. _________________________________________________________________ MSN Photos is the easiest way to share and print your photos: http://photos.msn.com/support/worldwide.aspx

I wonder if Kraftwerk had an answer to Tangerine Dream's tauntings? My guess is that they said nothing? Rob. _________________________________________________________________ Join the worlds largest e-mail service with MSN Hotmail. http://www.hotmail.com

The difference being that Bartos took a much more active role in song writing though? -----Original Message----- From: Rob Evans [mailto:robert_evans1@hotmail.com] Sent: 11 April 2002 14:13 To: kraftwerk(a)mailman.xmission.com Subject: Re: [Kraftwerk] Fritz & Henning >Other point is: why are they playing with KW?

He is credited on the Electric Cafe album as an engineer. Fritz Hilpert has been there a similar amount of time, and he is credited on The Mix Album, and his robot is on the sleeve, of course. They received their "promotions" after Flur and Bartos left, and they are no less important than Flur and Bartos, in my view. They complete the line-up and play their role in the four-man band that is Kraftwerk Rob _________________________________________________________________ MSN Photos is the easiest way to share and print your photos: http://photos.msn.com/support/worldwide.aspx _______________________________________________ Kraftwerk mailing list Kraftwerk(a)mailman.xmission.com http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kraftwerk ********************************************************************** This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.

Just thought Id mention this as this is one of my favourite bands other than Kraftwerk (there is a link just wait for it), from an Electropop band called Bis. They've just released a covers 12 inch of Factory Records classsics, you can get it from http://www.roughtrade.com/ or http://shop.thestableyard.net/display.asp?shop=optimo For a band that started out sounding like riot grrrl in the mid 90's they now sound more analog synth kraftwerk style now. Another band thats fantastic for there Synth Pop edge is 'Ladytron' who draw heavaly from Kraftwerks Man Machine Album ,as well as alot of the early 80's synth (Visage, Japan, Human league et al) pop bands from that period. It just shows that 80's Analog style is far from dead and its interesting to see other bands borrowing the sound of early Kraftwerk music and using it to there advantage & from that creating something new.... eer where was I, umm yeah hehe ^-^ Anyhow thats my plug done for the day, hehe. Anyhow laterz >From Lewis x x _________________________________________________________________ Join the worlds largest e-mail service with MSN Hotmail. http://www.hotmail.com
