Thanks: Gave 39, Got 191 | Kraftwerk – Minimum Maximum
Not sure how many Krafters there are here, but just received there latest release a live 2CD set from their last european tour, and its blindingly good, if anyone liked the Tour De France Soundtracks then this will blow them away, includes all their best stuff musically its stunning (a great way to sample Kraftwerk for the first time) and the recording quality is sublime. http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/...843263-3010230
If you’re a long time Kraftwerk fan you’ll love this, if your new to them you’ll love it as its their best stuff, and anyone who bought Jarres : Aero CD and liked that should buy this without delay.

Wasn't this supposed to be a SACD release???
Or did I imagine that???  
EDIT: http://www.beatfreax.nl/s/760edfdc1f/art_id/856.html
Has the SACD version been canned??

Vinyl costs £30
CD £12
Not sure what the DVD-V & SACD will retail at or when they are released.

Saw them live in Manchester last year (or was it the year before that. I can't remember).
Excellent concert. I found their new album alright, but nowhere as good as their earlier material.
I wonder what the album is like which they never released?
It was ready for release so I wonder why it wasn't.

The marketing geniuses strike again! Why not just release the Hybrid SACD? Why do we need the Redbook CD as well?  | |

Looking forward to the DVD. I have the 2CDs, quite good.
It was a good surprise after the abysmal new double U.N.K.L.E CD that was released recently  | |

Yea the CD is fantastic. The quality is about as good as you will ever get. Far, far superior to an earlier CD I have of them in concert which is more suitable for a place mat
Only downer/s is they didn't include, in their concert and/or the CD, Radioland, comet melody 2 or a fuller version of Autobahn.
Pieved I'd missed them in concert... just didn't know they were touring!
Considering strongly to get the DVD too.
