Notes on the show:
An incredible find that only just recently came to light after sitting for some 45 years. This comes courtesy of J.T. who got it from Saul Smaizys. If that name sounds familiar, he interviewed Ralf & Florian in April of 1975 on WXRT radio in Chicago for an article he would later write from that interview. In talking with those in the Kraftwerk community, we have deduced that this show is from Vancouver. Should further details come to light, I will update. Of particular interest is the very WEIRD intro to Kometenmelodie I. Ralf & Karl have a slight improv jam on vibes & the Vako Orchestron's "Vocal Choir." Sadly this tape suffers from lots of hiss and what sounds like radio bleed-through from another station. Nothing has been messed around with in any way. If anyone wants to improve upon what's here, feel free!
Enjoy this folks!
