I was lucky enough to see Tangerine Dream in concert around 1975. To be honest, they came across better on LP. 3 guys sitting at gigantic synthesizers wasn’t that exciting. I did enjoy their music, though, especially their work on the James Caan film “Thief.” RIP Klaus.

You were lucky. Tangerine Dream did some terrific music, “underwater sunlight” comes to mind for instance. Klaus did some great solo work too. Really sorry to see this.

Awesome music in Risky Business, as well.

You don’t go to a TD concert for the stage show, at least you didn’t back in the 70s and 80s.

Ah, that would have been when Christopher Franke was with Tangerine Dream. (Basically Schulze replacement on drums & percussion and added a 2nd keyboard player & electronic sequencing. The 3rd keyboardist (and some vocals) Steve Schroyder came on board with Franke in 1970, beginning the long run with 3 keyboardists...)
