Although Kraftwerk's first three albums were groundbreaking in their own right, Autobahn is where the group's hypnotic electronic pulse genuinely came into its own.
The main difference between Autobahn and its predecessors is how it develops an insistent, propulsive pulse that makes the repeated rhythms and riffs of the shimmering electronic keyboards and trance-like guitars all the more hypnotising.
The 22-minute title track, in a severely edited form, became an international hit single and remains the peak of the band's achievements — it encapsulates the band and why they are important within one track — but the rest of the album provides soundscapes equally as intriguing.
Within Autobahn, the roots of electro-funk, ambient, and synth pop are all evident — a truly pioneering album

LABELS: NEAR MINT
Both labels are clean and unmarked with just one spindle trace on each side
VINYL Visual: NEAR MINT
Both surfaces shine like new and even under bright light there is barely a wispy hairline to be seen
VINYL Audio: NEAR MINT
Plays like new throughout and the cleanest copy I have ever heard.
Even on the quietest sections this final upgrade is pretty much pristine
SLEEVE: EXCELLENT+
A really fine example with crisp, clean, sharp and unworn edges with all spine text clear and bold
