AUTOBAHN (Malaysia, 1985) EMI/ Parlophone TC-EJ 2400704 Another oddity from a new country on this blog: Here's the Malaysian cassette of Autobahn. It is notable for several reasons, one being the different background colour, a sort of pale beige, which makes it stand out among a bunch of other Autobahn cassettes... It looks surprisingly fresh, counterparting the blue of Emil Schult's well-known painting. Speaking of which, the LP cover has been very slightly cropped, so you only get half the album title and band name from the top of the picture! Both are printed in orange across the top of the front though, so it's there, but if you know how that picture is supposed to look, it is somewhat startling none the less. The picture is cropped left and right as well, so you lose both the grill of the Mercedes-Benz, but more notably most of the trees on the right, which I suppose loses something of the "industry in harmony with nature" appeal of the picture... Yeah well....
