"While little known and relatively unheralded during its brief existence, the Krautrock duo Neu! cast a large shadow over later generations of musicians and served as a major influence on artists as diverse as David Bowie, Sonic Youth, Pere Ubu, Julian Cope, and Stereolab." [source]Have you seen that Portlandia skit about Neu!? Yeah, that would be me, if I was a little less self-aware. So, I have a later repressing, which I got for a steal, as the original is hard to find. Neu! was formed when Michael Rother and Klaus Dinger left Kraftwerk. The music is absolutely sublime. I love it completely.
