Incredible early Kraftwerk footage

Incredible early Kraftwerk footage:





Seldom-seen footage of the short-lived Krautrock “power trio” iteration of Kraftwerk consisting of Florian Schneider, Michael Rother and Klaus Dinger that existed ONLY briefly when Ralf Hütter left the group to study architecture in 1971.



As Rother and Dinger went on to form Neu! at the end of 1971, this could be looked at more like this is Neu! with “special guest” Florian Schneider (who totally rocks out here!) but this is a Kraftwerk performance. And the quality is stellar!



Below, “Köln II”





“Kakteen, Wüste, Sonne” (which translates as “Cactus, desert, sun”)
