      Indeed most were not ready for this. But Kraftwerk and others prepared them get ready for this. I am always impressed when I see this. People always think techno is something new, and when I did that in the 90tees, I did that to. But the pioneers again were 20years ahead. From todays view, this is nearly 50 years ago!!!

      I get the reaction given the year. The funny thing though is that to this very day if this was played live on unsuspecting people they would have similar reactions. The vast majority of "music lovers" today are completely clueless and ignorant to what authentic electronic music sounds like. There will always be a large number of people (I think most people) who will not have the brains to truly appreciate or respect electronic music.
