I'm so surprised there are no reviews for this incredible album yet!
This is probably one of Kraftwerk's most known albums, and its not difficult to see why.
Of course tracks such as 'Trans Europe Express' and 'Showroom Dummies' are absolute classics but this album has a lot of songs that just didnt get the air time they deserved. In my opinion, the best track on this LP is 'The Hall Of Mirrors' it does not sound like the Kraftwerk we know and love but the melody is hypnotising and the lyrics are so deep "Even the greatest stars dislike themselves in the looking glass" the meaning of the words to the song is unknown but Kraftwerk described the song as 'autobiographical'
This record is an absolute must have. No question about it
