Hey, there's worse places to be than tied up with Geri Halliwell. In fact, pretty much anyplace. Oh wait, what's this thread about again?

She's posing for consumer products now and then
For every camera she gives the best she can
I saw her on the cover of a magazine
Now she's a big success, I want to meet her again

Not really thought about it before, I mean yes Kraftwerk were important but not that particular album but I suppose mid late 70's flying in the face of punk it stands out.

Computer World a bit later was a particular favourite of mine at the time, and still is. By that time they had refined their 3 minute masterpieces and it set the tone for so many beep beep electronica albums that followed. Had it playing only the other day and it still sounds fresh.

Cheers

According to a DJ friend of mine who grew up in Brooklyn, this is true.
