The third studio album by the German electronic band Kraftwerk. It was released in October 1973 on Philips. In it, the band moved towards their signature electronic sound.. In 1975, it reached number 160 on the US Top 200 Albums chart. Along with Kraftwerk's first two albums, Ralf und Florian has not been officially reissued anywhere to date, and the band has not performed any of their material live since the late 70s. Nevertheless, the album remains an influential and sought-after work. In 2008, Fact named it one of the 20 greatest ambient albums ever made. The record included a "musical" poster with caricatures of Emil Schult, who played the electric violin live with the band (although he does not appear on the album recordings). Schult remained an employee of Kraftwerk. Cartoons illustrated each track of the album, as well as the city of Dusseldorf with the caption "In Dusseldorf on the Rhine, klingt es bald!", which literally translates from English as "In Dusseldorf on the Rhine it will sound soon"
