Any fans of Tangerine Dream here?
I still listen to their 1970s albums: Zeit, Rubycon, Ricochet especially, and recently bought the Bootleg Box Set vol. 1, which is mostly from 1975. I think that's the year I saw them one time, maybe it was '76. Those sequenced Moog patterns still cast a spell. It seems to me that they deteriorated very thoroughly after that period, but they're still going in some form.

I enjoy Alpha Centauri, Atem and Stratosfear, and there's lots more I will definitely find the time to listen to. The first time I heard the opener to Alpha Centauri was such an intense experience that I will never forget.

Klaus Schulze who played drums on their debut album went on to release many Ambient classics himself, with titles such as 'Moondawn' and 'Timewind'.

The only thing I know of Tangerine Dream is from the film Legend. Love the film and their music with it.

I love Tangerine Dream. Phaedra was the first thing I heard by them, brilliant album. Zeit is probably my favourite, although it's something of an acquired taste...

I love 'em, and also like modern tributes like Troum, Neptune Towers and Biosphere

Hi all,
I have great affection for Rubycon, it's one of my favourite albums, and the beginning of part 2 of Ricochet, with the lovely piano part, is utterly sublime.

Brings back memories. I actually haven't bought any CD versions yet (so I probably last heard them like 25 years ago). From that period, I did however continue to follow the work of my number one in this area: Klaus Schulze.
