correctness? The guy made fun of me for three days. What correctness are we talking about? What is it that I don't understand here? Basically I should always turn the other cheek, when I defend myself I'm rude or inappropriate, or what? Unhappy

I was hoping we discuss our misunderstandings by PM, not in the open forum. Ouch

Why did you think it was necessary to explain the joke? LOL

Tried your best to do what? That is the question. 
I was talking about an album I enjoy a lot.

 I find that a lot of the sort of art pop and art rock music of the 90s up that I love has a Krautrock influence (often referencing Can and Neu! and/ or Harmonia...)

"one of my favourite categories"

I'm happy to have you here with us others, Logan, an to give you this possibility.

"a lot of the sort of art pop and art rock music of the 90s up that I love has a Krautrock influence"

I'd say, certainly yes, as well.

Krautrock is one of my favourite categories and these were the first to spring to mind (one album per act).

Dom - Edge of Time
Brave New World - Impressions on Reading Aldous Huxley
Message - From Books and Dreams
Can - Soundtracks
Popol Vuh - Hosianna Mantra
Yatha Sidhra - A Meditation Mass
Embryo - Embryo's Rache
Faust - So Far
Amon Düül II - Yeti
Ralf Nowy - Lucifer's Dream
Neu! - Neu!
Ash Ra tempel - Ash Ra Tempel
Brainticket - Cottonwoodhill
Tangerine Dream _ Electronic Meditation
Agitation Free - Malesch
Dzyan - Electric Silence
Kraan - Kraan
Harmonia - Muskik von Harmonia
The Cosmic Jokers - Galactic Supermarket...

And also in a kind of Krautrock universe, I love Bobby Beausoleil's Lucifer Rising, then there is Boredom's Vision Creation Newsun, and I love This Heat, and I could include more pop acts such as Stereolab for some early albums, some Portishead, then there is David Bowie's Berlin trilogy. And a quite recent discovery of mine, Vanishing Twin I find that a lot of the sort of art pop and art rock music of the 90s up that I love has a Krautrock influence (often referencing Can and Neu! and/ or Harmonia...)

Going for what PA classifies as Krautrock only:

Holger Czukay - Movies
Can - Soon Over Babaluma
Amon Düül II - Yeti

Now I guess I'd get to the best 15 if not more by listing albums of Holger, Can, and ADII only (and it goes even further including associated solo albums that aren't in this category or not even on PA... Irmin Schmidt!!! But also Jaki and Chris Karrer), but in order to bring in diversity:

Agitation Free - Malesch
Faust - s/t (and IV)
Guru Guru - Live
Neu! - s/t
Deuter - D
Popol Vuh - Hosianna Mantra
Ton Steine Scherben - Scherben

Actually, despite being a big fan of the top 3, otherwise most German stuff I love is not in this category.
