Subj; Who's posting those lists of classical records & why? Who is this person who is posting long lists of classical records with no explanation of why? Are these your favorite records? Do you think we should run out and buy them? Do you think we cannot afford a Schwann catalog? Seriously, I don't know what to make of it. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Short (pop) record review - Kraftwerk - 'Tour de France'. This is the first album that Kraftwerk has put out since 'Computer World'. It's a EP with just one tune, 'Tour de France (French version)' on one side and 'Tour de France (remix)' on the other. I'm a Kraftwerk fan but was disappointed in the album. The tight, rhythmic bass lines are gone. Also, the electric drum is much simpler - just your standard bass-drum/snare plus a fast clicking sound. It reminded me a bit of Hancock's 'Rockit'. Another disapointing purchase. I hope they were just being lazy or cynical and that this isn't an example of things to come. Hear it before you buy it. - Karl ...decvax!decwrl!rhea!star!malik
