Kraftwerk! That brings me back.

Even better, Tangerine Dream, if anyone here knows of them.

Klaus Schulze?

I was a teen at Fort Knox in the mid-70s, so the guys who’d just come back from Germany knew about them. And Autobahn was a pretty big hit in general, here in the U.S. I’m pretty sure the AOR stations were playing a cut down version of the track, and maybe the full one at 2AM.

I'll bet! The title track is over 20 minutes long.

I remember Volkswagon used it in a tv commercial sometime in the late ‘80s.

That rings a bell, but didn’t manage to find it with some searches. Difficult search, though.

I liked them better during the Autobahn era, when they still incorporated flutes into their music.

Hey, check out what I just found while looking to see if there were any Faust videos on Youtube. A BBC krautrock documentary. Looks awesome! Think I’ll watch it later tonight after the kids are in bed.
