Lieber Florian, möge die Reise auf dieser Autobahn, auf die Du gerade aufgefahren bist, niemals enden!

Danke für die Musik die Du und Deine Kumpels, zu uns gebracht habt.
Ich weiß es noch, als sei es erst gestern gewesen, als ich, ein damals 12-jähriger Junge, zum allerersten Mal 'Autobahn' im Radio hörte, ... !
Es war, als öffneten sich Türen für mich, die bisher verschlossen waren. Diese Tür habt Ihr aufgestossen. Sie haben meinen Horizont erweitert. Niemand konnte diese je wieder schliessen!

Danke, und Ruhe in Frieden, wir werden Dein/Euer Werk nicht vergessen.

Allzeit gute Fahrt Florian!

@David Deane Yes. I had never heard anything like it. I was stunned that a piece of 'pop' music could be every bit as layered, intricate, innovative as traditional 'classical' music yet be so different. I remember looking around the room and feeling astounded that only three of us appreciated it. It had a profound effect on how I listen to music and I love it for that as well as loving the piece itself. Best wishes.

There is little music from the 20th century that will still be heard in 500 years (if humanity still exists). Of course, they will still know and hear the old masters, Bach and Beethoven. But the music of Kraftwerk, especially Autobahn, is one of these eternal sounds. This music will survive time.

@9tophat

2y↑72

Autobahn was my introduction to Kraftwerk from my friend's dad when I was in high school in the 80's. He had an amazing audiophile-level setup in his basement and played this for me, knowing I might like it. I was hooked from that moment onward. I'm 52 now and still enjoy my Kraftwerk albums on my own two-channel audio system. The Autobahn track is one of the neatest tracks I've experienced and still one of my favorites. I'm very thankful to Kraftwerk for their music that still remains in our hearts and imaginations. ♥️👍🙂

The fathers of techno. I was 17 years old when Autobahn was released and I immediately fell in love with it, because no one and I mean NO ONE was putting out electronic music like this. Florian Schneider and Ralf Hütter were at least 20 years ahead of their time.

If you haven't already, check out their first album, Ralf & Florian -- couple of mindblowing tracks on that album as well. Not as neatly packaged as Autobahn but equally enthralling.

I went out and bought Radioactivity after Autobahn was released; couple years after that I bought Trans-Europe Express, another well-produced album.

Honest to goodness, I found this album at a Goodwill thrift store in very good condition, took it home, and played it on my stereo. I could not get enough if this 23-minute-long musical epic. Reminded me of when I was stationed in Germany during the early 1980s and did some driving on one of the local highways in my 1973 Porsche 911. Kraftwerk is still making music today. Man, this is a real groundbreaker. And it was all analog, tape recording and all. And it sounds like it was recorded tomorrow. Never mind that an edited version was issued on a 45 rpm single and it became the band’s Top-40 single on the U.S. charts in 1974. Enjoy.

The passage beginning at 3:20 is just gorgeous and can bring me to tears. A classic.

As with you Roger, I heard Autobahn on KMET 94.7 The Mighty Met 74-75. It was played a lot on the overnight so I got to hear it played while working graveyard shift stocking shelves at SAFEWAY Newport Beach. Unique and captivating for its music, I purchased the (vinyl) album, to this day I still own! Listening to Autobahn is one of the defining songs you hear as an 18-19 year old, resonates with you and takes you back in time.

@ArtieBRockin

Same here w/ KMET I was in the Navy stationed in Long Beach in 1974. I always got 1st choice on the new Cassettes in the ships store. This was one of them I purchased.
I used to drive the Cuntsevative war mongers nuts with this. My shipmates loved it. LOL!
Especially when we were out near Catalina doing maneuvers. We'd be smoking a doobie in front of the 5 incher, (Big Gun). No one can see us up on the Bridge. Sea wind blew the smoke away. And the watch on top was a stoner friend too!

You could argue whether rappers should be inducted or not but what Kraftwerk made is definitely worth a HOF spot
There’s a reason when someone says nothing sounded like this back in 74’ they get compared with Pink Floyd
Inspired Bowie, made music that not only sounds fresh to this day but changed electronic music forever, used synths to come out with futuristic sounds and developed techniques that producers still use to this day
If u ask me I’d say yeah they deserve to be inducted

I was a huge Kraftwerk fan when this recording was released. It was mid 70's, I was active duty Navy homeported in Norfolk, Va. Listening late at night with a serious buzz was how we spent the winter weekends. Kraftwerk's composition was original and fun to listen to.

Damn, being in the Navy back in the 70s would be a dream come true. F-8 Crusaders, F-4 Phantoms, and F-14 Tomcats galore!

@Phantom-088-plane guy... the F-14 was still in the trial phase at the time, but they were starting to come on line.

@Alex Fracyon.... two (2) Med cruises... for a total of 13 months. We did stop in Bremerhaven, Germany for some ship repairs. I would love to go back to the Mediterranean again.

Great head music put on the headphones 🎧 and get stoned and close you're eyes and just melt

@pctrobottitley8334

I repeat what I said four years ago,the finest electronic track in the world,and greatest album cover

RIP Florian. Thank you for your legendary contribution to music. You will be missed.

@philippedefossez3421

1974: unpacking the Autobahn-album as a christmas present 'on request', and being mind-blown as a fourteen year-old listening to it the very same evening.

1976: the French artist Jean-Michel Jarre appears in the local charts for the first time with an excerpt from his first LP named "Oxygène", to be followed two years later by "Equinoxe".

1980: Carl Sagan's "Cosmos" documentary series are being shown on national broadcasting, largely introducing Vangelis' music in a most impressive overall experience

Due to these profound musical and spiritual influences,, the life experience would not remain the same afterwards, still having their everlasting impact today. "A thing of beauty is a joy forever".

Still makes my spine tingle every time I hear this! Was introduced to Autobahn at the age of 8. Listened to it for the first time in an aunt's neighbour's car in quadrophonic sound - felt like I was going to dissolve!

I was 12 ... luckily my parents knew someone who worked at Kef and we had some Kef Concerto speakers (they are amazing) ... so I used to lie on the floor next to these speakers and the bass was powerful enough to shake the windows :D

What a blast from the past! I remember buying this album on CD in the late 80s and listening to it often. Although it's dated a bit now, it's still very listenable - no mean feat given it's 48 years old now! Fond memories, and some sad ones, listening to this masterpiece of 70s synth.

@revrotunda3206

This album is so amazingly ahead of it's time....it's truly mind blowing. It was released in 1974 for God's sake. Nearly a half Century ago! No Internet, no Mobile phones, no Sat-nav etc. I've been a fan of them for years & years. Lang lebe Kraftwerk!

@ACocktailShaker

I remember at age 15, how awesome this vinyl sounded, after wearing out their 3 previous records. This dude Peter Anderson, and I were like the only Progressive/Electronic music freaks in town, and we had no way to even begin to categorize this album. Most everything electronic was done by Prog Rock bands like ELP, King Crimson, Renaissance, and early Genesis, and such. This wasn't classical-based, this was straight-up electronic, and there was simply nothing like it available that we had heard. Not even on the super-progressive college radio scene. But seriously, truth, If it weren't for Kraftwerk, and this work in general, I wouldn't be listening to 30 freakin' sub-genres of EDM today as an old fucker, getting laughed at, at the clubs! :P

@jollyrodgers7272

I always loved this - Kraftwerk's signature piece. From 3:20 to 6:30 you can feel the expansion joints of the motorway in the music beat - Genius!

Using car and hornsounds in a genius way, they are one of the great pioneers within electronic music.

After 46 years still perfect sounds that make us young again. Kraftwerk will be heard the next 46 years, but will anybody hear Helene Fischer 46 years ago?
Autobahn war recorded without Karl Bartos, the line-up was Ralf Hütter / Florian Schneider / Wolfgang Flür und Klaus Röder.
RIP Florian and thanks for all the years of good music

@VincentTPackhorse yes my dear friend.

@VincentTPackhorse no way 😳

@austinmunday8190

@VincentTPackhorse that's impossible there's no way it was recorded in 2050

As time has passed, this musical theme was played for the first time in 1986 on a station in Quito, Ecuador, specifically on Radio Vision, which unfortunately no longer works, what an excellent memory, congratulations to Krafywerk, a great German group.

@mtt4496

this song brings me a lot of memories from when i was a child. i remember my dad would play it on the stereo while washing the car or doing something else, always on saturday morning. he would play this and some other good songs and i always enjoyed listening to all of them. sadly, since we moved to another house things became a lot diferent and now the house feels more silent, even when everyone is still here.
i wish i could just go back in time and revive those memories, at least once.

@AdelaTomankova

4y↑1

Me too! But also because we still had a lot of CDs and we had to throw a lot of them out when we were packing our things :(

@janicerecord5982

Why don't you play it for everyone again? Your dad would like it.

hmmm, yeah i could try ^^
