I think it's Monika Froese, at least that's what somebody have speculated.

I always wondered that too. The womans voice does have a slight American accent to my ears.

I'm quite sure that's an american voice, not Monica Froese.

......I seem to remember that in a reply to that question in the FIRST TD sponsored International Fan Club, the answer to that question was that the voice was none other than.......wait for it......Jerome Froese!!! Lest we all remember, that recording was 20(!!!!) years ago!!!! He was a lot younger back then, and, well, so was I, and you, you and, well, YOU!!! :twisted:

hmm, never thought of that. But could be. And indeed I am 20 years older now and more grey. :(

Maybe American, but I also detect a European lilt in her voice.

Also, completely and totally disinterested and getting ready
for her bed by the sound of her vocal enthusiasm.

Cheer up girl!

never read it either and I don't believe it also. But on the other hand there is a lot possible with sampling, even in those days.

I seem to recall reading (somewhere) that it was someone from the record label.

regarding the intro on Livemiles part one. Im sure i had in either the Dream Roots box or I-box box booklets a picture of Froese/Franke/Haslinger with the guy who apparently introduced the Alburquerque show...and do you think i can find that picture now? Can i heck.

While we're on the subject of Livemiles, i saw TD at the Hammy Odeon on the 86 tour. Remember the joint TD logo on the tour programme? Well when Tyger appeared in the shops i nearly had kittens because i thought it was a live album of that show....the next album after that was Livemiles and none of the music on that album is remotely close to what was played on the uk leg of the tour. I had a couple of 'boot cassettes' of the show i went to but was over the moon when we got the Vault:Brighton release. I remember the bass been so loud (not in a bad way) at the Hammersmith show that our seats shook!

Fond memories of my first TD show.
