La Düsseldorf

La Düsseldorf was a krautrock band from Düsseldorf, Germany, consisting of the original Kraftwerk drummer and Neu! multi-instrumentalist Klaus Dinger and occasional Neu! collaborators Thomas Dinger and Hans Lampe. La Düsseldorf was formed after Neu! disbanded following the release of their Neu! 75 record. They released a string of successful albums (with sales totaling over a million) during the late 70's and early 80's and were considered highly influential by the likes of Brian Eno and David Bowie, with Bowie going so far as calling La Düsseldorf "the soundtrack of the eighties". They released 3 albums: La Düsseldorf, Viva and Individuellos. Thomas Dinger continued to put out music under a similar name (1-A Düsseldorf) until his death in 2008. Read more on Last.fm.
