If you want something decent to listen to this is it.
Faithless fans may have thought that the sun shone when they heard tracks like Drifting Away but this CD WAS RECORDED IN 1978 when a Pentium chip wasnt even in production or possibly not even on the drawing board at Intel.
Which makes this CD still refreshing.
The shuttle hadnt reached the lauch pad at Cape Canaveral yet Spacelab almost is as symbolic - its clockwork beat adds to the imagination.
The space age theme continues in Metropolis.
The Model was a hit for Kraftwerk and has been released as a single several times over the years. Its theme based around the windows of Hamburgs 'model' district.
Neon Lights was always one of my favourite tracks and centres around the Northern Lights experience - the orchestral work in this track is masterful
Which leaves Man Machine another clockwork theme backing track is brilliant and brings this cracking CD to a finale
Buy this CD its worth it and the fact that it is still is as refreshing as 23 years ago proves that it has stood the test of time.
How many modern acts will be able to bost this claim in twenty years time????.
