@ masseur:

Seeing ELO in that list brought back a flood of memories of my youth; particularly the Electric Light Orchestra's 1979 album, Discovery, which was pretty much iconic in our household's LP collection.

Discovery was another of my favs and there's almost no track on there I don't like

which brings me to another point about albums... I almost never bought them if it meant there was only 2 or 3 tracks I liked... I'd rather buy the singles, but these albums I have listed are albums that have maybe just one song only that I don't like

I've found some of my most favourite songs on albums, that have never been released, take Mutter for example, Links 2 3 4, Sonne, Feuer Frei! and Ich Will were released as singles but my fave track on that album is Rein Raus, think if you will Kraftwerk meets Cradle Of Filth and you'd end up with something like Rein Raus...

Rrreeein... raus!

LOL fatreg.

Links 2,3,4 is my absolute fave off the album. Cool video too, with all the ants n' stuff.

When I hear of Kraftwerk, their song 'Autobahn' immediately comes to mind. What an incredibly pioneering song it was. That was another single that was played over and over again in my (much) younger days, and it's uniqueness meant that I never really tired of it. Classic.

I've only just gotten into Kraftwerk, but I can see that they paved the way for many electro bands we see today, although that said, Rammstein did cover Das Modell, with a somewhat industrial take on it, although Electric Cafe by Kraftwerk, is a masterpiece, you are not going to get more synth in one album, talking of masterpieces, Straight Outta Compton, now, that's an album and a half, Gansta Rap is nothing without N.W.A (arguably you also need PE) although a whole empire based and born upon drug dealing...
