Tangerine Dream S/D

white eagle was my entry point.

i had read re the band somewhere, so went into my local record shop where they had listening posts.

i took white eagle to the counter and asked if i could hear it.

the opening 20 seconds scared the shit out of me, so i bought it there and then.

to this day its still one of my favourite albums of theirs.

and yes the reissue of logos where they put side one and two together as a whole makes it just brilliant.
question : did the band only ever appear on stage if there was an announcement re the band : logos, poland etc .
thread idea : albums where the band is introduced
this doesn't seem to happen anymore (last one i know of is public enemy, nations .. )
i guess it was a thing that is no longer in favour.

on yr feet or on yr knees from long island it's the blue oyster cult

The bootleg serious is on Spotify. We have an old iPhone hooked up to a cube speaker in the kitchen and it's been pretty much all live Tangerine Dream for the last two days. Absolutely the best.

Does that have a bunch of crossover with the Tangerine Tree torrent collection? I'm listening to the Reims cathedral show (1974 iirc?) right now and it's just tremendous

(Reims from tangerine tree volume 30)

I never had that collection, Tangerine Dream is an act I've always enjoyed kinda passively -- I had some of the early LPs but haven't really dug in. I assume it'd cross over since this is called "The Bootleg Series" - Vol. 1 is Reims and Mannheim. It's just incredible stuff, you can open any one of 'em and find yourself completely immersed

These are guys who figured out how to be on a stage IMO

Cool yeah it looks like a official release of the t tree stuff awesome! I hope they release more after these two volumes. They gotta get to those 1981 shows with the ultrakiller themes from The Keep in there

I don't know if it's on Spotify but the Zeit-era live recording that's included in the last Zeit reissue CD is super great.

That Reims show is amazing, as are the live shows appended to Zeit and Atem.

Here's more on the release. Very very nice

Is the live atem stuff like atem at all? Or more a preview of things to come?

The live stuff from the early '70s is very different from the albums - much more improvisatory, darker and weirder.

Did they do the caveman vocal thing live that they do on that one atem track?

Here🔗's more on the release. Very very nice

there was a coventry cathedral video in 1975. but there's some discussion about it being film from coventry but music from ricochet.

http://voices-in-the-net.de/live_at_coventry_cathedral_1975.htm

but the original, as broadcast, is on youtube : www.youtube.com/watch?v=6EUfdxYAKXU

Rock music was not their forte, as this film proves, but this is amazing footage.

Bits of that feel not unlike the acid trip scene in Easy Rider.

The wiki page for the Risky Business soundtracks says that "The Tangerine Dream songs were chiefly previously released compositions, shortened and retitled to correspond to scenes in the movie."

Is this right? And if so, where can I find the longer songs from which the Risky Business were taken?

The answer is mostly in the same wiki already, tracklisting below. No Future is an edit of Exit, Lana is an edit of Force Majeure etc.

Also the wiki page for Force Majeure says that "Guido the Killer Pimp" is an edit of "Cloudburst Flight" from that album.

huh cool, thanks!

I love the "twinkly" music on the Risky Business soundtrack and want to find more of it.

Force Majeure is so good

my fave

Giant box set coming May 31.

Tangerine Dream were one of the true pioneers of electronic and ambient music and the albums they recorded for Virgin Records between 1973 and 1979 remain classics of the genre. 'In Search of Hades: The Virgin Recordings 1973 - 1979' is the definitive statement of this period in Tangerine Dream's history, featuring newly remastered versions of the albums 'Phaedra', 'Rubycon', 'Ricochet', 'Stratosfear', 'Encore', 'Cyclone' and 'Force Majeure' all drawn from the original first generation master tapes, and new Stereo and 5.1 Surround Sound mixes of 'Phaedra' and 'Ricochet' by Steven Wilson. 'In Search of Hades' includes 8 CDs of previously unreleased material; 3 London concerts in full (Victoria Palace Theatre in 1974, The Rainbow Theatre in 1974 and Royal Albert Hall in 1975) along with the previously unreleased full soundtrack to 'Oedipus Tyrannus', recorded in July 1974 and remixed in 5.1 Surround Sound and Stereo by Steven Wilson.

Also includes 2 CDs of previously unreleased outtakes from the Phaedra sessions at The Manor Studios, Oxfordshire in November 1973 and the surviving 35-minute live recording from Coventry Cathedral in October 1975.

The box set features 2 Blu-Ray discs featuring the 5.1 mixes of 'Phaedra', 'Oedipus Tyrannus' and 'Ricochet', along with a 1976 German TV performance and BBC Old Grey Whistle Test broadcast of Tangerine Dream at Coventry Cathedral.

In Search of Hades is lavishly packaged with a hardback book featuring new liner notes and rare photographs and memorabilia.

Link to pre-order (goes to some Canadian shop I've never heard of)

Sounds good. Unfortunately the last collections like this had the individual albums spread across multiple discs (cutting the albums up), and I doubt that will happen this time. We'll see when the tracklist becomes available.

the cover art is amazing!

Gah!
That's my birthday so...you know...

i have a complete set of the Virgin era cds, and so did not think I would want this.
however, depending on the price, I really f&cking do.
and yeah, awesome artwork.
re the earlier boxsets : was indeed weird how they cut up the albums across the cds, they did the same for Edgars solo album boxset.

Has to be a purely a cost decision

On the 74-78 set if they'd left off the edits and single versions (I mean, who cares?) they wouldn't have had to split Stratosfear IIRC.

Seen $160 mentioned for this new one. If the albums sound good it'd be nice if they filter out to some more regular sized sets.

At current exchange rate, $189.99 Canadian is about $145 US. Not bad at all.

A version of Green Desert without the 80s overdubs would be nice, although that one never came out on Virgin so not relevant to this set I guess. Would be good to hear though, maybe it's never going to happen.

I have both of these:

https://www.discogs.com/Tangerine-Dream-The-Virgin-Years-1977-1983/master/1335443

alongside vinyl copies of a few of of my favorite individual albums, so can't really justify buying this new set despite my TD fandom

The boxset also comes with a 68 page hardback book containing photos, cuttings and a new essay by Wouter Bessels and input from Steven Wilson. Remastered by Ben Wiseman (2018). Box art by Rupert Lloyd.

Force Majeure is the one I would want in surround. Wonder if the multitracks weren’t available.

Seriously can't wait for this box to arrive.

I have a soft spot in my heart for The Dream Mixes (1995). They tried to nail a 90's, FSOL-type sound and didn't quite get there. It seemed slightly dated when it came out, and now it has a great retro-90s appeal to me. It reminds me of Lawnmower Man, Beyond The Mind's Eye, Mondo 2000 and Schwa. Younger Vaporwave fans might also find this one interesting.

Also the songs are actually good.

Just got the email that the box is on its way to me. Time to rearrange the shelves again...

Read only good things about the big box but I'm sort of hoping the new single CD editions of the main albums will suffice. They're cheap and you get a good selection of bonus tracks including the SW stereo mixes. That leaves the London concerts and Oedious Tyrannus, which may be good but I'm not quite a TD superfan.

That '95 album sounds intriguing XP.

And the Phaedra outtakes. And it is a one time pressing. Really not bothered about 5.1 though.

Arriving today...

Tangerine Dream rule.

Ohh! That's looks great.

Really wish they weren't sullying the band's name by continuing to record and tour since Edgar's death. It's not TD without him.
