Re: 01/04/2010 - opportunity for something out of the ordina

Those things will NEVER happen. TD are playing very safe on their concerts... :shock:[/quote] Um, not sure what this means. Did you consider live performances of Dante to be "playing it safe"? By the way, is there some reason to think that the London show will be significantly different fr...

You can also hear parts of "Ice Walk" played during TD's 1981 tour during the tune known as "Thermal Inversion" in the Tangerine Tree Titles.

No problem. To reiterate, 0:31 is where the distortion is most obvious. Otherwise, a beautiful and stunning album! I hear it on mine at that point. Thought it was my speakers. Although it is there, it's certainly not a shop-stopper (for me at least). BTW, while on the subject, the title track is my...

My theory is that so far no copy of "The Keep" LP has survived because... well... imagine: You find the record at a local flea market (just 1 € - bargain!), then you can't get home fast enough ("OMG I'm rich, I'm going to make MILLIONS on ebay!"), you put down the needle on the ...

I chose Autumn in Hiroshima because, to me, it is one of TD's all time best albums. Coherent in its storytelling and musically very emotional. I listen to it in full quite often. My second favorite would probably be Purgatorio, which for some reason isn't included in this poll. When the Dante albums...

Has it never been played live??

How does the re-recording sound different?

The I-Box version indicates it is live, but doesn't say where/when.

I have to say that I'm a bit disappointed that this topic is mostly just a poll, with comments of the "I like this one, but not that one" variety. I think that Edgar's interpretation of Dante was a major work, very risky artistically and commercially. Few would have attempted such a projec...

Never liked the album. Since this is a "looking back" thread, I'll re-post some of my thoughts on the album originally posted several years ago. Back in 1977 I saw Tangerine Dream play live in the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium. I had previously read about them in the British music magazine...

Let's not forget that in the recent past an event like the Dussmann show would not have been released at all. Only a lucky few with connections in the tape trading world would have access to it, and that access would result in a tape only as good as the skill of the person who taped it allowed, and ...

Genesis TD connection?

I've been a bit nostalgic regarding Genesis lately and was watching some videos on YouTube and poking around various Genesis fan pages. One of the problems with posting in a forum like this is trying to figure out if a subject has already been covered. I suppose many Genesis fans know this informati...
