In this edition of Just Another Tuesday, I am briefly reminiscing a Roger Taylor favorite from his Desert Island Discs Vol. 2.
Autobahn (Album)
4th album by German band, Kraftwerk
Released in November 1974
Inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame (2015)
Genres considered - Electronic Pop, Ambient, Kosmische
Certified Silver in the UK
"Autobahn" (Song)
No. 25 on Billboard Hot 100
No. 11 in the UK
No. 12 in Canada and the Netherlands
"Autobahn" only released in the German language
Both the album and the song are inspired by the German Autobahn motorway.
The Autobahn is well known for having no speed limit for some classes of vehicles. The advisory, though, is 81 mph.
The history of the Autobahn dates to the 1930s...
...And this is where I will leave off.
