So, I tried to search for threads like this and the search function was not working.
I have always been a Tangerine Dream fan. I recently just went into a huge deep dive of their music. Their album Rockoon has been on repeat for me over the last few weeks. Loved by the Sun (the many instrumental live versions) is one of my favorite tracks by them.
What are some of your favorite Tangerine Dream tracks?
I just spent some money on a bunch of TD songs/albums. I decided to treat myself. Something about the atmospheric and dynamic sound of their music is really hitting me well tonight. I am writing this at midnight. My creative juices are running on overdrive in my brain. I am in at a cross roads in my life romantically and journey wise. I feel the weight of the world on my shoulders and yet tonight their music is making me feel like everything will be alright.
I really want to see them live if they ever make their way back to the midwest when this pandemic finally lifts. Has anyone else here seen them live?

I grew up midst the Froese/Franke/Schmoelling period, that will always remain TD for me. Followed them awhile with Haslinger, but then i gave up.

I didn’t realize there were so many variations of the band set up. That is fascinating.
I just got through The Endless Season and am
now going through One Night in Africa.
I really recommend Rockoon for anyone who loves that 70s/80s sound. Lifted Veil, especially the last minute and a half. I love the saxophone.

And Thor, I will give your review a watch.

Been a huge TD fan since around 1980. I finally had the chance to see them a few years back when they played the Moogfest about 2 hours from me - but between the festival ticket prices ( way too high since I'd be going to one show only ) and my wife not wanting me to go alone but not going with me....i gave up and didn't go. It was Froese's last tour , of course.
Diamond Diary is my favorite TD track, their signature track in my opinion. Tangram Parts 1 & 2.
Love On A Real Train.
The opening track from the Poland album. No Man's Land. Crystal Voice from Firestarter. Thru Metamorphic Rocks. Rubycon. Phaedra.
Those are the first ones off the top of my head when thinking about favorites.
Diamond Diary is in my top three by them. I love the score to Thief.

I've got over 100 cds of their works, not counting the unmentionables that they released themselves. Close to 300 concert recordings, plus lps. I'm more into the Christopher Franke years and most of the works up until 1996. Had not found anything I liked until this recent lineup that seems to have recaptured the halcyon days. Your mileage may vary

Well, I'm standing by it lol. I will face the firing squad if I have to. I actually really like the album. When I do play it, I usually give it two listens in a row. I'm playing Lifted Veil right now.
