      Stellar release! Clean, clear and flat record, really nice printed inner sleeve, and a beautiful booklet with some great photos of the band.

        This is not bad pressing but older pressing is more dynamic and has more details. Plus, surface noise.

          Everything in this edition is simply excellent. Incredible sound, good dynamics. No surface noise. The clear vinyl is very nice, as is the insert book with pictures, excellent printing quality. This is the quality that Kraftwerk deserves.

            More silent, more detailed and better dynamics than the 2009 edition.
            Highly recommended.

                Clear vinyl 180g edition. Very quiet vinyl and outstanding pressing.

                Not much to say here about Kraftwerk, "Man Machine" and "Trans Europe Express" are definitely great releases. The music is well written, beautifully recorded, with some interesting vocal parts. The song "T E E" is the highlight of this one.

                Absolutely recommended.

                  Lovely packaging and book, this is the sort of fetish packaging I’ve been longing to see from this group, I’m not sure there will ever be a generous package for this album in the future. I hope so. Outside of the clear vinyl the mastering and pressing felt pretty standard on my system and felt that I needed a EQ to bring out more richness. I wonder, is there a 45rpm AAA release?

                    Looks and sounds excellent. A steal at under $25. Haven’t compared to other pressings but strong enough value for money here not to want to seek out alternatives.

                      My side A had a huge speck of white dirt (paper?) glued to it at the end of track 1 that made the record repeat. I was able to clean it off a little but it still has noise in that very place. It plays on without repeat now at least. I have most of the other coloured vinyl represses and they were fine
