ISBN: 0 946719 38 1 256 pages (illustrated) - Paperback Revised Edition : Publication: November 2001		KRAFTWERK MAN,MACHINE AND MUSIC Pacal Bussy "Without them there would have been no hip hop, no house, no ambient music, no electro and even Michael Jackson with whom they flatly refused to collaborate would have sounded different. Bussy engagingly explains why they're one of the few groups who've actually changed how music sounds." Q Magazine "Timeless enigmas, groundbreaking techno pioneers, stubborn outsiders and obsessive cyclists. Bussy's crisp, business like biography of the most unlikely anti-rock band in history purrs smoothly along like one of the top-of-the-range Mercs Ralf Hutter and Florian Schneider used to collect... This is a thorough and entertaining read with much helpful incidental detail." NME
