If you enjoy TD during the Relativity/Private years, many soundtracks got reissued, and they're still coming. Firestarter Strange Behavior The Park is Mine Catch Me...If You Can Deadly Care Dead Solid Perfect (next month, with restored artwork) I suspect Heartbreakers may get a reissue with the proper artwork restored. I'd like to see The Man Inside get reissued, too. As for TD released during the last fifteen years, these are all great. The ones in bold I consider a must, especially Light Flux, GTA 5, Sorcerer 2014 and Raum.

I have Tangerine Dream's twelve classic Virgin albums in two box sets, but I've since discovered TD's two best eras by far are the Linda Spa years between 1992 and 1996 and then again between 2005 and 2014 - at least they were TD's best years for me anyhow, and here's why....   |

I have all the albums from the 'Virgin' years, the 'Blue' years and then the 'Melrose' years. I just seemed to lose interest after that, and have only bought the 'odd' one since.

Yes, I'm well on the way to reaching Tangerine Dream's 200th album and I still have Klaus Schulze's extensive solo discography to look forward to after that.

 2013: One Night in Africa - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mwTAM920LR8Tangerine Dream's 159th album. Not a tribal album of jungle drums, but a politically-sensitive compilation of TD tracks which touches on the sometimes shocking history of European colonialism in the African continent. Not an album for fans of Tarzan then.  Edited by Psychedelic Paul - July 26 2023 at 01:50 |

 2013: Tangerine Dream & Brian May - Starmus: Sonic UniverseTangerine Dream's 43rd Live album and their 158th album overall. Starmus is an international festival of music and astronomy held every year on the island of Tenerife. This epic two and a half hour concert recorded in 2011 - with special guest Brian May - celebrates the 50th anniversary of Yuri Gagarin's historic first space flight in 1961, so prepare for lift-off! |

I'm planning to give this old thread a much-needed boost soon by listing all of the various Tangerine Dream series' in one post - probably around the time I reach the end of the Booster series.

2012: Live at Admiralspalast, Berlin Tangerine Dream's 40th Live album and their 154th album overall. There's currently no full-length video of this concert available on YouTube, but it's worth watching the short clip below just to see Linda Spa making Love on a Real Train in German uniform again.

2012: Machu Picchu - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jpck5itdn5M Tangerine Dream's 153rd album, recorded in 2004 and eventually released in 2012, Machu Picchu is Edgar Froese's private tribute to the much-missed Radio 1 DJ John Peel - an early promoter of Tangerine Dream on his offbeat radio show - who died whilst on a working holiday in Cusco, Peru in 2004, so have a tissue handy when you listen to Machu Picchu.

I read today that Universal Pictures weren't happy with Jerry Goldsmith's original score for Legend, because they wanted a soundtrack that would appeal more to the "youth market". The president of MCA/Universal persuaded director Ridley Scott to come up with a new score, which Tangerine Dream wrote and recorded in just three weeks.

^ that's very unlucky, I can't imagine such a thing happens very often. From looking at Amazon it appears that there is a Blue Ray special edition that includes both versions of the film, but it's not totally clear to me so don't rely on that!

I bought the movie "Legend" yesterday (starring Tom Cruise) mainly for the amazing Tangerine Dream soundtrack, but when I looked at the DVD cover upon returning home, it said "Music by Jerry Goldsmith". I discovered today that it's only the original American version which features music by Tangerine Dream and not the European version.

When Stratosfear was released I bought it immediately when I saw it in a Listening Booth..a chain store record shop . Stratosfear created a change in Tangerine Dream's music. Edgar Froese was playing the guitar differently by strumming melodic open string chords which at times it was difficult to tell if he was not in fact fingerpicking the chords.
There were pulsating rhythms which sounded a bit more wooden block percussive. Several of the soundscapes differed from the ones on Phadrea, Rubycon, and Ricochet. The Mellotron sections were very mysterious and the surrounding electronics were sweeping and distant and created a sound that was luring. The music was more dynamic than on previous albums and obviously more usage of melody. Not unlike a melody to a Sci-Fi theme ...yet it very much wasn't and clearly based geared more toward the interest of instrumental composition than constant improvisation over top of Electronic rhythms. Stratosfear was the first indicator of change. After Stratosfear was released..that changed everything. At times Tangerine Dream returned to their Phadrea style periodically and falling between other writing styles originally developed on Stratosfear....evident on sections of Poland and Logos . |
