Includes a 12" B/W double-sided insert of archive photos, clippings, and texts.
"There are moments of great beauty like 'Moorby' and, equally, many moments of sheer depravity all performed with Kraftwerk's cultured class and the hypnotic charm and deadly grace of a synthesised cobra." – Steve Sutherland (Melody Maker, 1982)
"All the world loves a love story? but Heartbeat still has an edge of evil among the extensions of the pair's established scenarios." – Sandy Robertson (Sounds, 1981)
