DREAM SEQUENCE

Absolutely essential if you are new to Tangerine Dream and want a thorough and honest cross section of their musical abilities, The CD is made up of a double disc with various highlights from Rubycon, Tangram, the brilliant live album Ricochet from 75', Stratosfear and Phaedra to name the main subject matter. Short songs like " Choronzon" off Exit and " Cinamon Road" from Hyperborea highlight the not lesser material and are almost singles but pale in comparison to their more lengthy work. Note this is from The Virgin years so anything pre Phaedra is ommitted. Personal recommendations are " Cherokee Lane" from another fabulous live album Encore, " Tangram Set One" and " Ricochet Part Two". " Kiew Mission" offers some of their best 80's material. Anyway as far as compilations go, this is a winner. Four stars for sensible song choices.
