Tangerine Dream

:roll: I think Edgar and Chris Franke 'fell out' a long time ago, probably around the time he left TD in 1987 or so, and I don't think they ever patched things up, so to my understanding, Chris never got involved with anything TD related after that, which was a shame because he certainly was a majo...

:D At long last The Park is Mine has been released on DVD and Blu Ray in the USA (Actually released in December 2016). Have been waiting ages for this to get a release, having bought the VHS Tape version many years ago. Still a lot of the Bobby Roth movies with TD scores not released but I still li...

Nothing much, though it available to pre-order from CDS in Scotland. Apparently it has two tracks which are by Johannes Schmoelling and Jonas Behrens. I think the first A Thousand Times (2009) is Schmoelling's best solo album from the past decade or so, so I'm looking forward to this.

:) I like Loom but I would much rather see Mr Schmoelling produce another solo album as his previous releases were fantastic and so original and I miss that kind of output from him. Yes, you can often hear the Schmoelling sounds in Loom but it is not the same as the man doing his thing on his own. ...

It's a shame they didn't do Tango and Cash, I remember that was a big film at the time and maybe would have got them more exposure, kind of like them missing out on doing Miami Vice for Michael Mann.

Der Zaubergeiger is actually not that rare, bought it for 4 Euros on eBay last month... Fair enough, although perhaps the demand for this release is minimal. Pricing is affected by popularity as well as rarity...plus an Ebay seller not realising the value of what they've got (one hopes for this lol...

I listened to Red Roaster (or Red Rooster as I like to call it) a few nights ago. Still sounds good, lots of tension and build up. A little nostalgic. Two bursts of saxophone near the end of the track...yes not all the sax on TD tracks is by Linda Spa.

Jon wrote:Red Roadster is a great track, but is there more than a couple of seconds of sax on it?

Funnily enough I was just thinking that...it's a while since I've heard it. Maybe it's about eight seconds near the end I'll listen to it again tonight and remember being 21 and feel sad!

That makes sense, and being a big Scmoelling fan I would be tempted, but not at that price :wink: Actually I'm thinking if I was ever to buy DER ZAUBERGEIGER SETTEMBRINI I should have done so 20 years ago! It's tricky coming up with prices on rare items. Normally you can look and see what they've p...

That makes sense, and being a big Scmoelling fan I would be tempted, but not at that price :wink: Actually I'm thinking if I was ever to buy DER ZAUBERGEIGER SETTEMBRINI I should have done so 20 years ago! Is the Manikin release of MACULA TRANSFER the original bonafide album without overdubs/rerecor...

I remember when this came out and was listed in the CDS (Dundee) catalog. If I remember correctly, this is a spoken word storybook CD with accompanying music by Schmoelling but the music is in the background. Unlike the Rumpelstiltskin release there are no separate standalone tracks on it without th...

Lion's Share, anyone? Or is it Lions' Share?

The Blue Bridge
Long Island Sunset
Lifted Veil
Red Roadster

I understood that Baumann and Froese were working on ideas last year, which must have been a strong part of why Baumann wanted to get involved in the Quantum project with Thorsten and Schnauss. He may have left now, but perhaps it's possible that some of his contributions might have been recorded an...

The first thing that comes in to my head is that it would be great to include interviews with as many past members of Tangerine Dream as possible. I think this would provide a varied overview and provide different perspectives on the various albums, tours, soundtracks, developments in music technolo...
