Tangerine Dream: Untangling the Tangram

No, I never got to see Tangerine Dream play Live, but I have seen a lot of electronica artists play Live in Derby, including:- Ed Alleyne Johnson; Andy Pickford; Bekki Williams; Robert Fox; David Wright: Paul Nagle; Paul Ward; Ian Boddy; Mark Shreeve; John Serrie; & John Dyson, to name just a few.

 1992: Rockoon - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MBEhINJwdE0What do you get when you cross Rocky Racoon with Tangerine Dream? A Rockoon! This is Tangerine Dream's 21st studio album and their 44th album overall. Rockoon is notable for being the first Tangerine Dream album recorded by the father and son duo of Edgar and Jerome Froese. It's also worth mentioning that the previous year of 1991 was the only year so far not to see the release of a new Tangerine Dream studio or Live album, mainly due to Rockoon having spent ten months in production - the longest ever production time for a Tangerine Dream album to date. There were four belated soundtrack albums released in 1991 though, so more than enough there to keep TD fans happy. Rockoon may not be one of Tangerine Dream's more memorable albums, but it's certainly more welcome than having Rocky Racoon running loose in your house.

Ten months in production...I don't hear anything that merited such a long interval. "Big City Dwarves" is the best cut (why it's also the first cut), but the rest isn't too memorable, though not necessarily any worse than Melrose.

The made-for-TV movie stars Cheryl Ladd of Charlie's Angels fame, in a movie that's low on glamour but high in melodrama, so keep a box of tissues handy.   Deadly Care (the movie) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AyNKq5uDywk I’ll check it out

Thank you I appreciate that

The album was recorded during Tangerine Dream's US tour in 1992 and marks the first appearance of saxophonist Linda Spa and guitarist Zlatko Perico, but why on earth is Linda Spa dressed as an East German border guard!??
