# groundbreaking in their time
but you'd never want to listen to more than 1 album at a time, for the onset of ennui can be fatal under certain circumstances.

# *boring muso fact*
they used to be session musicians and played on the Labi Siffre tune ("I got the" I think) that Eminem (well, Dr Dre anyway) sampled.

# aren't Public Enemy right up there as well?
They are sampled shit loads, which is a correctly measured amount.

# I have to say here
that these are not particularly rare. If,however, you should ever come across either of their early albums (Kraftwerk I and II, and Ralf and Florian), you should grab them immediately because they are as rare as liberal Daily Mail readers and excellent to boot.

[edit: just realised you got them for free - jammy]
