Enjoyable interview! Thank you for sharing it! More Ralf is always appreciated. Ralf always mentions that there was no German music in Germany after the war. In a way he was right, folk music had died out and bands copied the things that came from overseas instead of making their own thing. Amusing that a band that wanted to be distinct and German in style didn't find the big success in its own country. There's a fascination with foreign cultures, in music too. He still saw himself as an amateur. Appreciated the young people making their own tapes etc. He likes pulses and hard beats, minimalistic music. He also mentions the droning/ambient style like Tangerine Dream etc. but it's not his thing. Ah I wish interviews would be conducted without background music. But that is hardly your fault. For me it is very hard to focus on the words when there's music in the background. I still enjoyed listening to it.

l saw them in SYDNEY on this tour
Nice find!
have you the following shows? Toronto 1975 zurich 1976 and memphis 1975
I don't have them I don't even have a clue if any recording of those shows exist. But trust me I am always on the look out looking for more concerts.
Autobahn did not play in germany in 1972 Autobahn was relesed in nov 1974
Trans Europe Express was played in 1976 but was released in 1977. I don't see your point.
it is not true> Autobahn did not play in germany in 1972 Autobahn was relesed in nov 1974
your joking. a early verison of autobahn in 1971 or 1972. it was not realse until 1974
A concert reviewer from 1975 states that he saw autobahn performed live in 1972 in Germany. He described it “keyboard heavy” Not a joke.
Some songs were played before they were released like Trans Europe Express and Europe Endless in 1976
