I remember when Autobahn came out, just how far ahead of its time it was. I actually like more some of their Pre-Autobahn stuff when it was just Ralf and Florian, Florian could have given Ian Anderson a run for his money on the flute. And "Das Model" is an awesome song, it's a cool video.
The concert was great. They had updated some of the older songs like Man Machine and Radioactivity to name a few. Incredible.
The Model became a hit record by a fluke. They were releasing Computer World as a single. The story is on You Tube with an interview with Wilfgang Flur I think. He said the exec at EMI in London needed a B side for the single. He ended up pick ing The Model from the prior album. It became a pretty big hit.
