I was wondering the same thing. But as jeff pointed out, even if this
was actually true, I'd find it *very* doubtful that the influence of
Kraftwerk would not have invaded Juan's consciousness in *some* way or
another - he must have heard music by other people who had heard
Kraftwerk, for example...
