"The album that represented Kraftwerk's first commercial breakthrough, following on from previous experimental output, 'Autobahn' was a highway-gliding piece of symphonic elegance originally released in 1974. The title-track pays its homage to the monotony and simultaneous joy of sailing through an uninterrupted stretch of the German highway system, unbroken and repetitive, the music replicates the experience with soaring majesty - driving motorik rhythms and a collage of speeding cars, engine noise, car horns and radio distortion."
