[KRAFTWERK] Fans, figures and fun

[Eric Gartner]

Personally, I don't think the chart positions of Kraftwerk's albums  
matter. However, one of the roles of this list seems to be  
disseminating every scrap of Kraftwerk information as it enters the  
public domain. Many members here all collectors who pride themselves  
on knowing all there is to know about the group. From that  
perspective, reporting on chart positions is harmless. I doubt there  
are many on this list who actually fetishize chart position and are  
overly concerned about Kraftwerk's commercial performance.
