Awesome Paul,
Another great track, that’s a lesser known one to
most people. So, its nice seeing it show up here,
where more people can get a chance to hear it.
It’s got lots of energy, and very catchy to me.

On another sad note, one of the founders
of Kraftwerk, Florian Schnieder of Kraftwerk
has passed away due to cancer. One of the
alltime greats.

Sad news I heard about this this morning.
This record is one of my all time faves Paul! And it comes at a time when I’ve been feeling so sad. Gosh, you have no idea how much you and your site can place me in the happiest of moods. I haven’t heard this track in years! Last time was in a restaurant and I got so excited that I almost choked on my meal. So rare to hear it. Paul, many, many thanks for this treat.
Jeff
So glad that my posts help to cheer you up Jeff. 🙂
thank you Paul.
You’re welcome 🙂
