Not only were Kraftwerk purveyors of early ‘70s progressive rock, they pretty much single handedly invented the electronic Techno-Pop music that paved the way to the dance music we hear today from LCD Soundsystem and Daft Punk. This oft-sampled title track from their 1977 album has popped up in recordings by Afrika Bambaataa & Soulsonic Force ("Planet Rock"), De La Soul … [Read more...] about Song Of The Day by Eric Berman – “Trans Europe Express” by Kraftwerk
