Why doesn't Scaruffi like Manuel Gottsching? Both this and

i'm pretty sure he likes him though? having plenty of 7/10 albums throughout the 70's/80's is pretty solid at least. i guess he just hadn't made a "defining" masterpiece like a lot of other krautrock artists he's a big fan of, just a whole bunch of great stuff.

Planning on listening to him soon and I'm already familiar with some krautrock artists. Is his work similar to NEU! or Kraftwerk's Ralf & Florian perhaps?

I'm just confused on why he gave both of his albums 7/10 but gave LCD Soundsystem's homage to Manuel Gottsching a 7.5/10

Because he's a contrarian for the sake of being contrarian in some cases.

More similar with Steve Reich and Philip Glass

Either the Inventions or E2E4 especially are his masterpieces, there's no dispute.

how is a 7/10 bad?
thats 2 points from perfect according to him

>>73443088
Because it implies it's only "pretty good" and not an accomplishment of popular music.
Klaus Schulze is not two points better than Gottsching.

dont forget the Ash Ra Tempel debut and The Cosmic Jokers, those 2 are some of the best space rock albums out there
