I've always had a soft spot for "Exit" and "phaedra". How can you not like the band picture on the former? Someday I will be so lucky to have my mug in german motorcycle goggles looking new-agey hardcore, arms crossed, looking blankly at the camera. But then again, a music major friend of mine bought "Exit" as a joke for $.99 and said he had a good laugh at it. Maybe I just can't seperate my fondness for it from the fact it sucks. (YMMV) "Encore" (double LP live) is also quite good - old twinkly synth material. They have more releases - "official" live, bootleg and LPs than you would believe, so if you really dig it, you'll have almost as much to buy as if you were to get really into Atom Heart. Unlike Atom Heart, however, you have a good chance of finding Tangerine Dream @ the local thrift store. Oh, and above all else, for gods sake stay away from the releases which include vocals. (esp. non-new-agey folks) Andrew -| Andrew Schrock | aschrock@cs.brandeis.edu |- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
