3 stars 1985: Heartbreakers (soundtrack) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SZoGT6nUybk
 
Heartbreakers is Tangerine Dream's 25th album overall (for anyone who's still counting) and their 7th soundtrack. Heartbreakers is notable for being the last Tangerine Dream album released on the Virgin label. The film stars Peter Coyote, and if you want to hear the music and see the movie too, there's a brief movie montage below. Smile

A Savage Rose tribute thread would be very welcome, especially by me. "Bring out the Danish!" - as we say in England.  Wink

Yes, I remember, Paul, but band threads are not exactly me, and not least the Danish ones, that is except from Secret Oyster, Burnin' Red Ivanhoe and Ache - and even I like some of Savage Rose (at least Dødens Triumf).

Secret Oyster are Denmark's best-kept secret. Smile

I should go Straight to the Krankenhaus for that lame joke. Tongue

Yes, but I can hardly criticise David for going off-topic when I'm the self-proclaimed king of off-topic-ness. LOL

Anyway, I'll be back on-topic again soon when I'll be taking a walk in Le Parc. Wink

I like Le Parc, so I might join you there. And I often am going astray in les parcs and les forums, but as often as I wander off, I usually wander back. I like free-slowing discussions, especially when one can always bring things back on topic if one cares to by saying something on topic (segues work well and I like a little subtlety).

I haven't been participating here, but I love lots of Tangerine Dream (one of my favourite bands).

Cristi, what are your favourite Tangerine Dream albums?

Cyclone, Thief, White Eagle
1974-1983 is my favorite period of theirs, although i do listen to their early work sometimes.

Thief was the only Tangerine soundtrack I bought on the original vinyl. I've listened to seven soundtracks on this thread so far and Thief still remains my favourite Tangerine Dream movie score by far. I still have at least another fifty TD soundtracks to listen to though, so who knows if Thief will still remain my favourite score when I've listened to them all. Smile

Many thanks. I have a long drive today, and you have inadvertently just chosen music for me to listen to -- those would be great for my drive and I did want something other than early period for it (much as I like it).

I'm not in doubt, Paul, who's the most humorous person on the PA forums. Thumbs Up

3. Barbakane (18:04)
4. Horizon (21:10)

One of the band's absolute peaks: four wholly original sides of music that vary greatly with a kaleidoscopic intensity. featuring loads of interwoven sequences, melodic tapestries, ominous textures and even the "rock track" in "Rare Bird"!

For a while in the mid-'80s, Poland was a bit hard to find in my sector of the US, and nearly achieved "white whale" status till I happened upon the Relativity cassette in a chain store that was well out of the way. (Yes, really.)

Heartbreakers is a fantastic score. Nothing is recycled from another album nor "alternate" cues to be found.

The score shares the same sonic palette as Poland, so doubters who are put off the film's tone and topic may want to give the album a deep listen. It's brilliant. 5 stars in my book.

I was obsessed with their music and I bought all of Edgar Froese, Christopher Franke, and Peter Baumann solo albums. I collected everything by Steve Jolliffe and I missed his performance at a balloon race somewhere in New England. Missing that was a huge disappointment.

Eventually I became fanatical over the Tangerine Dream family tree and as a result collected everything I could find by Klaus Schulze and several others . It was fun

What do you think of post-Froese TD, i.e., "The Quantum Years"?

I recall Le Parc was the last Tangerine Dream album I bought on the original vinyl. I'll keep a look-out for the Firestarter album the next time my local record store has a fire sale.  Tongue

I bought Le Parc on vinyl for the first time (!!!) when Culture Factory reissued it as a gatefold that opens to display the legendary photograph of Chris Franke's ballroom-studio and all that gear to salivate over! (The gatefold is cropped by 10%.)
