Mary Anne Hobbs recommends
"The writer Paul Morley says that Kraftwerk compressed all the best
ideas of 1970s modern Germany into pop music, and he’s absolutely right.
As we journey through the story of their sound with host Marc Riley, we
also learn that they were some of the funniest and most eccentric
musicians of their generation. Did you know that Kraftwerk would cut the
wires of speakers in a public place if they felt the music being piped
was ugly?"
