EXCELLER 8

Ok, I'm the first one to review this one. It's not very strange though since this is a fairly uncommon LP in the second hand stores. This is a Canadian "greatest hits" covering the period up to and including "Autobahn", but a total playing time of 38 minutes makes it impossible to cover enough. Some tracks have to be shortened so much that it is almost ridiculous. The track "Stratovarious" that on "Kraftwerk" (red traffic cone) is 12 minutes long is in this compilation 1,36 minutes long, which means just a short fragment. Autobahn in 3 minutes? Well, I think this version is even shorter than the single version (I may be wrong). But don't worry, it's not "new" versions, just shortened. The same goes for some other tracks on this LP as well (ex: Kometenmelodie II, Kling Klang). So to be short, this one is nothing spectacular, and it doesn't make such a good compilation either. Collectors only.
