It's really great when you're doing a radio show in a house with a party going on downstairs and you stick on the sidelong title track so you can go downstairs for 20 minutes, only to find the needle got stuck in the groove half way through. Yup, really industrial that way.

Otherwise pretty great lp. It's Tanze Der Lemminge that is a bit messy from that run.

Unfortunately most of the live, as opposed to improvised, material available appears to come from 72 or later. So isn't concurrent with my ideal period. I guess they still had something at the point though.
& what I've heard's been a bit quiet and distant.

There are a couple of different versions of the first run of ADII lps on cd since more than one label has reissued them. I'm not sure which is best remaster.

Trader's DEn torrented 2 3dvd sets called Krautrock Nacht. It may still be doing so, well worth checking out. Massive download though. & I haven't checked out disc 3 on either set yet, a bit late for my tastes really though Kraftwerk remained good.
I have both sets if you get stuck
