| Tangerine Dream. Only truly love Amon Düül's two first. Eloy/Frank Bornemann's got one of prog's - no wait... popular music's most annoying vocals. |

Amon Düül ll but Force Majeure is every bit as good. I just threw a little love the Lemming way seeing as it was without any votes. Something like a sonic scarecrow on steroids. Up there with Yeti and Wolf City. I could never pick one over the other as all three are absolute masterpieces...but in different ways. ------------- “The Guide says there is an art to flying or rather a knack.

My personal preference: Tangerine Dream - Force Majeure > Amon Düül II - Tanz der lemminge > Eloy - Dawn------------- https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLqf2srRfppHAslEmHBn8QP6d_eoanh0eW" rel="nofollow - My compositions |

AD2 just ahead of TD, again hard to split those 2, Eloy much further down the list. ------------- Ian Host of the Post-Avant Jazzcore Happy Hour on Progrock.com https://podcasts.progrock.com/post-avant-jazzcore-happy-hour/ |

I'm leaping for the lemmings. Though Force Majeure is not to be sneezed at! One of my favourite albums when I was fifteen, with a cassette tape of this and a crappy pair of headphones I had some pretty good trips (and I certainly hadn't taken any chemical ones at that tender age...).

All I can figure is that few people have actually heard Eloy "Dawn." Because it's freaking great. I can understand a vote for Amon Duul II, because it's great as well, but Tangerine Dream leading Eloy by a 2-1 margin (4-1 until I voted) is ridiculous. TD's best work can't compare with "Dawn." IMHO, of course. ------------- PROGMATIC |

I can't figure out how people get past Bornemann's poor, annoying vocals and manage to enjoy their below average sympho-spacerock with its handful of memorable instrumental passages. I wish I had judged the book (=album) by its cover. - Going for my tenth favorite Tangerine Dream album instead was a no-brainer. |

Easily Amon Duul II, I keep going between it and Yeti as my favourite album from them. ------------- "The wind is slowly tearing her apart" "Sad Rain" ANEKDOTEN |

That's your opinion. I'm also an Eloy fan, and Force Majeure happens to be one of Tangerine Dream's finest records. Ocean or Colours vs. Atem or Cyclone may yield a different result. ------------- https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_ipg=50&_sop=1&_rdc=1&_ssn=musicosm" rel="nofollow - eBay |

Hi, Side by side this is not fun ... but if we take into consideration their time and place, I would think that AD2's effort is more important and its "improvisational" style very impressive and a true representative of the scene in Germany at the time. Eloy's Dawn is very nice, but I'm not sure it is as good a representative of "krautrock" as AD2 was. TD's album was impressive, and continued their incredible amount of great stuff, but was much later. ------------- Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about!
