Music

Not that many new artists interest me. But a few times a year I buy Uncut, a rock magazine that comes with a free sampler CD. This month the CD focused on Tommy by The Who. It seems Pete, who wrote the songs, had a strange experience with a crazy grandmother as a child. No details known.

Also in that issue is some discussion and brief interview with Kraftwerk:

Sipping cranberry juice in a swish Edinburgh hotel, Hütter speaks with the Pained air of a music professor being forced to attend Pop Idols auditions.

Asked about Kylie he sidesteps, says he heard electronics, “that is what I am into, electronic soundtracks.”

Asked about their 16 year sabbatical, he insist they were working. “No, no, we are musical workers and have no other dedication. That is all we do.”

Kraftwerk stand for a pan-European European community exchanging cultural electronic connections. He claims both order and anarchy.

The renegade robot, Flür, revealed some private details about the two leaders. Although by all reports Hütter and Schneider live normal family lives with wives and children, they maintain a strict code of secrecy.

I find the music entertaining at times, and even my son plays a club mix of it. But these Germans, always so serious! Maybe it is an act. :rollin:

I have four of their songs in English, Puppe too. They are pretty awful.

But it is not often a rock band sells a million records in Finland. Him have almost hit that number OUTSIDE finland.

Just heard my daughter play in the marching band at pep rally. She plays flute. Anyway, the poms had Led Zeppelin medley on CD and it was truly awful on a sound system that was much too small. Leave us alone, the parents do not need this stuff, neither does the principal. Play rap or something you like, kids.
