QUICHOTTE

To make the experience longer, I tend to listen to this album after ''Tangram''. They are of course quite similar in essence and since I fell ''progfundly'' in love with ''Tangram'', I could only be pleased with ''Quichotte''. As usual, the band is improvising an awful lot, even if there are some cues.

This is of course a more confidential album than previous live releases and much praised albums such as ''Ricochet''. Still, it is full of elements from the true TD essence of the seventies (which we all admire and love, right?) and as such it can be consider as a pretty good work.

Both sides of this album have their charms. While the first one is more ambient, full of tact and beauty, the other one is strongly harder thanks to some great guitar work and the rhythm is more upbeat as well. The whole though is an enjoyable experience for any symphonic- electronic freak. As I am.

This is an album that shouldn't disappoint any TD lovers from their great ''Virgin'' era... It is somewhat relegated in the second-territories which is not really accurate. I quite like it and my rating is four stars.
