Neu - Neu 75


This was the 3rd, and last album by the German Krautrock duo Neu!. Neu! were formed in 1971 in Dusseldorf, Germany by Klaus Dinger and Michael Rother, who were both in the German Krautrock (now Electronic) band Kraftwerk at one time. Neu! 4 is often viewed as the band at their best, the first half of the record was composed recorded in the vein of previous Neu! albums, while the other side of the record contrasts the first half, making use of Electric Guitars and proto-punk screaming. The album was legally issued with the consent of both Rother and Dinger sometime in the mid-2000's.
Klaus Dinger died on March 21st, 2008.
