Kraftwerk's "Big 4"

I couldn't find any Kraftwerk album polls, so here we are. I know that I could have listed all of their major albums, but really, their most significant and influential work is essentially limited to their "Big 4" albums of the '70s-'80s: Autobahn, Trans-Europe Express, The Man Machine, and Computer World. So, which of Kraftwerk's "Big 4" releases is your personal favorite?

I'll be listening to them again tonight before making my final decision.

I prefered the first two of the 4, the second two are too popish.

Autobahn
Trans-Europe Express
The Man-Machine
Computer World

Slightly off-topic, but related. What does everyone else feel about "Tour De Fance Soundtracks"? Personally, I found it to be a bit weak, but given the amount of time they've been idle, I suppose it's forgivable, even if the record sounds like it fell out of the late '70s.

I didn't think it was bad at all, and it has one of my favorite Kraftwerk songs of all time, 'Vitamin'.

I guess I'll give it another listen before I condemn it outright. Admittedly, I only gave it one play-through.

It interests me about as much, as standing for 10 hours to see bikers ride by in 30 seconds.

I can't say I'm a fan either.

Tour De France is a nice album. You can only re-invent the wheel so many times. I like all of the songs on it, and La Forme stands out in particular.

Trans-Europe Express is my favorite though. Trans-Europe Express > Autobahn > Die Mensch Maschine > Computer Welt.
