Mark Radcliffe presents a feast of great music and chat for weekend breakfast
Today, electro-pioneer and former Kraftwerk member Karl Bartos joins Mark to share his 'First, Last and Everything' - that’s the first record he owned, the most recent one he has enjoyed and the record that means ‘everything’ to him. He also talks about his new autobiography ‘The Sound of the Machine: My Life in Kraftwerk and Beyond’.
Between 1975 and 1990, Karl was, along with Wolfgang Flür, an electronic percussionist in the electronic-music band Kraftwerk. He left the band in 1990 and went on to form Elektric Music and collaborate with Bernard Sumner, Johnny Marr and Andy McClusky of OMD.
Also on the show... long-running feature ‘The Chain’ which gives listeners the chance to pick a track that links in some way to the last. The list now contains over 8000 songs.
With a selection of music old and new to get the weekend started.
