    Posted: August 10 2022 at 10:10
Phaedra was a princess of Crete in Greek mythology, and that's where we begin our journey as we cross the Rubycon with the music of Tangerine Dream. This legendary German electronica band have been with us seemingly forever, and their wonderful music reverberates and resonates through the years like a Ricochet bouncing endlessly off the walls through eternity. Tangerine Dream are best-known for their classic 1970's albums on the Virgin label and they really soared to the heights of the Stratosfear and beyond with the success of their fourth Virgin album in 1976. The trio of Tangerine Dream were led by the electronic Sorcerer of the keys Edgar Froese (1944-2015) with Chris Franke and Peter Baumann completing the line-up in the early years (up until 1979 when Johannes Schmoelling replaced Peter Baumann in the line-up). The band had a very successful concert tour of the USA in 1977 where they were often asked to perform an Encore and they stormed from coast to coast across the United States with all the power of a Cyclone in an unstoppable Force Majeure of energy and strength. The music of Tangerine Dream has all the colour and versatility of a Tangram puzzle, which can often be as  grand and imposing as the Pergamon Museum in Berlin. Tangerine Dream are well-known for their soundtrack albums too, most notably with the score to the James Cann movie Thief in 1981. It's in their stunning concert performances where Tangerine Dream really excel though, and fans are always guaranteed a long concert set before the band finally Exit the stage. The magnificent music of Tangerine Dream soars with the grace and beauty of a magnificent White Eagle and their music is just as distinctive as the Logos on their album covers. In fact, Tangerine Dream are almost as legendary as the mystical land of Hyperborea in ancient Greek folklore.

I've posted this brief review of Tangerine Dream's first album separately from my original post above because "Unravelling the Tangram" puzzle of TD's HUGE discography, including studio, live & soundtrack albums, is going to take up a heck of a lot of space. Smile 

3 stars 1970: Electronic Meditation - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_nQZZuCKIjf7hp20J1lL-ssUkr6_EanEZg

Tangerine Dream's psychedelic debut is the only TD album to feature the trio of Edgar Froese, Klaus Schulze & Conrad Schnitzler (who plays cello, violin & addiator, whatever that is!). This album is a total psychedelic freak-out and nothing like their later sequencer-driven albums, so buckle up and get ready to take a Journey Through a Burning Brain because this album is a wild ride! Smile

Stratosfear was also how I in 1977 got acquainted with TD, and has remained to this day my fave TD album, or actually the only one I like so far enough to make a part of my exclusive collection.

Electronic Meditation is a transition point between two ages, where three wayfarers stumbled onto a new quest that would occupy their senses till the end of their days. It's a milestone. Clap

I also love Stratosfear to bits, but is it really the only TD album you own? Hopefully this thread will change that. Wink

3 stars 1971: Alpha Centauri - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_noEO6a7IY62GQ8JNxn4DacJln_u2AwF9k
 
Alpha Centauri is four light years away from Earth, and just like the star system, this second album is light years away from Tangerine Dream's classic sequencer-driven albums from the later 1970's Virgin era. Alpha Centauri features dark, brooding, ambient soundscapes with an air of mystery about them, in much the same way as the star, Alpha Centauri, is shrouded in mystery, as it can never be seen from the northern hemisphere. In terms of distance, it would take over 40,000 years to travel the 24 TRILLION miles to reach Alpha Centauri, which makes flying to the Moon look like a walk in the park by comparison, so it's better to just settle for buying the album.  Smile
 
 
Klaus Schulze departed Tangerine Dream after the first album to begin a long and successful solo career. This album features the beginning of the long-time pairing of Edgar Froese and Chris Franke with Peter Baumann joining Tangerine Dream for the next album "Zeit", completing the classic TD trio in the early years.

Could be, and I'll give at least Phaedra a new listen. I can also tell that another good friend of mine since 1977 has been Froese's Ypsilon.

Anyway, this is a very good thread, and Paul, it's incredible how productive you are on PA forums. They would surely be something else without you. Clap

2 stars 1972: Zeit - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_kTcPbNmo7mf3Zl3MLlOreONsZNNAEmqL8
 
Zeit (Time) is Tangerine Dream's first double album, containing four long pieces of music (which fits neatly onto one CD these days) and it's also the first album to feature the classic trio of Edgar Froese, Chris Franke & Peter Baumann. Zeit is a dark ambient album with a foreboding atmosphere that's been described as Tangerine Dream's most austere and difficult album to get into, so if you have this album in your TD collection, then you must be a serous collector. Wink
