He's German and also known as Ewe Schmidt and Atom Heart. So, sure - he's international - just not where you think he's coming from.

Though I never reviewed this, I still listen to and enjoy it.

Which pretty much negates my standard response to this thread:
I HATE FOREIGNERS

And FELA is a BAD MAN
