Like many of you, I am a fan of several 1970s bands. Kraftwerk is one of of those bands.
For several years now they have been touring with just one surviving original band member.
I would never go and see them because of this. It is fraud.
Now quo are the same. It is sad.
For the benefit of people who are not familiar with Kraftwerk, one of their most famous songs has the lyric," I'm the operator with my pocket calculator".
Cheers.

Ah, yes, thanks MT. I do know that one. But as I preferred Autobahn and I'm not a fan of electronic synth music, I forgot about it.

Ah Kraftwerk... one of my favorite synth artists in the seventies and early eighties. Computer World which the song Pocket Calculator came from was their lats good albm for me, after that it all became a bit boring with Electric Cafe and Tour De France...Their albums Ralf and Florian, Autobahn, Trans Europe Express, Radioactivity, The man Machine and Computer World are all classic albums for me, especially Autobahn and The Man Machine Rammstein made a pretty good version of The Model/Das Modell Madturk, welcome to the board

With regard to Hutter and Schneider working with many different people. This is true, but Kraftwerk were always those two guys plus two others. The difference for me was when Schneider left. Then it became a joke.
