| J-Card Comment | Tangerine Tree Volume 23: Berlin 1973 presents Tangerine Dream's concert at the Deutschlandhalle in Berlin, that took place on November 29th, 1973. A few days later the band went into studio to record Phaedra, the album which earned TD widespread recognition as pioneers of electronic music. However, the music performed at this concert has little to do with their breakthrough album, and is much more reminiscent of earlier recordings auch as Alpha Centauri (1971), Zeit (1972) or Atem (1973).
Nonetheless, it is another fascinating concert which shows the improvisational skills of the Froese/Franke/Baumann line-up, and their urge to explore new musical territories. This recording was broadcast by the German RIAS Radio station and is an important document of the early years of Tangerine Dream, especially as few unreleased recordings still exist from that era. |
