I’m not much for live albums and yet, I just can’t get enough of a 21-minute live epic called “Ricochet, part two” they wrote around the mid 70’s. It’s one of the most fascinating TD tracks I know. It starts off with delicate piano and then slowly builds up to a frenzy of unearthly sounds. Very eerie, trippy and trance like but absolutely not boring (unlike much of TD music, I’m sorry to say). Now, I have over 25 TD albums but have yet to hear “Hyperborea”. So you’ve got me all curious now… ------------- [IMG]http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b311/Progueuse/Album.jpg"> Gene Police: You!!

Hyperborea for me.
TD has 25 albums? Wow, I never realised it was that many and have always been a big fan. I just heard for the first time Klaus Schulze's Picture Music and Mirage. It was like finding new TD, but a little more focused and some rock beat to it. ------------- Tim FM, Nash the Slash, Camel |

| Has anyone heard Tangerine Dream's latest album Jeanne D'Arc? I hope it's not too new agey like Oldfield's Light and Shade. |

The only tracks i know from this list are Remote Viewing, Kiev
Mission and Hyperborea. I choose the last one, which I think is close their masterpieces of the 70s. BTW, TD have released more than 25 albums (see the discography in PA) to Hibou: if you haven't already, check out their "official bootlegs" box sets, there are some gems in them (especially the 1975 london concert) |

I voted "Love On A Real Train". I think I would have
gone for almost TD track off of "Risky Business". The track I would have voted for, if it was listed, would be "Beach Scene" from the ThIef soundtrack. This track was that lead me into TD music and is still by far my favourite. Just wondering, anyone else like "Beach Scene" or am I alone in this one? ------------- "they locked up a man who wanted to rule the world. the fools they locked up the wrong man." - Leonard Cohen |

Sorry, Greenback: I should have paid more attention to your request. The track “Ricochet, part two” I mentioned above isn’t exactly smooth. For something smooth, “Love on a Real Train” fits the bill. ------------- [IMG]http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b311/Progueuse/Album.jpg"> Gene Police: You!! Out of the pool! |

I heard it! It's a fine job, very atmospheric and pleasant. I don't like Oldfield, so I didn't hear Light and Shade, but TD one is great, if you like their newer albums.  ------------- And above all, is punk

Stratosfear, Ricochet and Encore are my three favourite TD albums. I heard some 80ties work but missed the warm sounds of these albums. Is it the difference between analog and digital equipment? Or is it because one of the bandmembers was replaced by someone else? ------------- Music Is The Best |

Yes, I do. It’s light, ethereal and it has that hypnotizing little groove to it. It’s the kind of tune I listen to intuitively at first, until I realize I'm actually riding with it full spin. It's a little spooky and hard to snap out of it. ------------- [IMG]http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b311/Progueuse/Album.jpg"> Gene Police: You!! Out of the pool! |

Early digital synths certainly sounded "colder" than analogue ones, but I think the main issue with TD's 80s albums is that they changed musical direction. Whereas Tangram and Pergamon still retain much of their late 70s production, Exit, Thief, White Eagle, Hyperborea moved towards a more "updated" sound. In a way these records broke new ground, however I don't think they compare to their older masterpieces. As for the line-up changes, bear in mind that Peter Baumann never was a stable member in the band, although he played on all of their records from Zeit to Encore. Actually he left the band from time to time, to be replaced in concert by Michael Hoenig (I recommend his solo album Departure from the northern wasteland), with whom the band played an incredible gig in London in 1975 (see the Bootleg box set vol. 1), Maybe it was Schmoelling's arrival that led the band to explore a more commercial territory, however I think that it was primarily Froese 's responsibility (given his solo output in the following years). Going back to you first question I doubt Underwater Sunlight would have sounded better with mellotrons and moogs instead of oberheims and ppgs... warmer perhaps, but not any better |

If you liked Picture Musice and Mirage, try Timewind, Moondawn and Body Love (I and II), all from the same period |
