I've come to realize that there has never been a Kraftwerk "Greatest Hits" collection and as far as I know none of their 7"/12" versions are available digitally.

Does anyone have the following that they'd share?

Autobahn
Trans-Europe Express
Tour De France
Pocket Calculator

There is an "import" for sale on eBay called "Meccano" that I bought. It's a pretty comprehensive package. It has all the tunes you are looking for except "Pocket Calculator". 17 tracks in all. I didn't like "The Mix" collection so I bought this one. Great stuff.

Thanks for the responses. I've seen the live set, yet it's not what I'm looking for. It sounds good, the DVD as well. "The Mix" does not have the versions I'm looking for (the original mixes). I haven't seen "Meccano", but I'll keep an eye out for it.

Thanks!

obs,

I've never seen that Retrospective CD. I'll keep an eye out for it. Is that Tour de France version the original from the 80's. That CD was put out in the late 90's and I "assumed" it was a remix.

Thanks for the song and info.

That Tour de France single is the original 1983 versions/mixes, not the horrid 2003 remake.
