Tournado is a live set of Tangerine Dream classics from the Edgar Froese/Jerome Froese era. It is a live disc, recorded during the second set of a concert on April 23, 1997, in Zabrze, Poland. In addition to Edgar and Jerome, the performance features Zlatko Perica on guitars and Emil Hachfeld on Codotronics and percussion.
This is a stunning performance. TD has always been an excellent live band. This veteran lineup takes it to the next level, incorporating some cool samples and Hachfeld's awesome drumming. The performance is note-for-note perfect. It is essential TD.
This is the first time in TD's history that an original live recording remained "untouched", which means that there are no overdubs, no polishing, no editing between various tracks. The complete live experience without any remixing or overdubs.

Transsiberia: The Russian Express Railway Experience is the soundtrack to a documentary of the same name.
The electronic music score is by Tangerine Dream (Edgar Froese and Jerome Froese).
Tangerine Dream soundtracks are seldom, if ever, middle of the road. They are either great works that stand alone well or they are complete flops when taken out of context.
This is a great CD. The imagery is clear and vivid, the sway of the rhythm creates the feeling of being on a train, and the soundscapes are appropriately cold and aloof. Deep listeners will feel the isolation of Siberia and the aura of royalty in the Russian heritage.
This is classic Berlin school electronica by the founders of the style.
It is essential e-music.

Turn of the Tides is a concept CD by Tangerine Dream. It is based on an excerpt from -The Coachman's Tales by Edgar Froese.
The disc opens with a beautiful synopsis of Mussorgsky's "Pictures at an Exhibition," one of Tangerine Dream's strongest tracks ever. The samples are timely and the arrangement is flawless. This Tangerine Dream lineup has Edgar Froese and Jerome Froese on keyboards, synths, sound design, guitars, and programming; Linda Spa on saxophones and sound design; and Zlatko Perica on lead, acoustic, and rhythm guitars.
The opening track sets the stage as the refrains from "Promenade" lead into the story as the journey begins. Tangerine Dream paints the pictures as this soundtrack to no movie unfolds. (The liner notes do, however, have a recap of the story.)
This is a great CD. It will appeal to fans of Ron Boots, Ian Boddy, Klaus Schulze, and Kevin Braheny.
Here the new version with bonustrack.

Edgar Froese, Paul Haslinger and early group member Chris Franke are joined by singer Jocelyn Bernadette Smith for this album, which is somewhat of a departure from the pattern set by their three previous releases, "Optical Race", "Lily on the Beach" and "Melrose". Many of the tracks revolve around the sung and narrated poems of William Blake (1757-1827). Smith performs "The Tyger" (as in: "Tyger, Tyger, burning bright / In the forests of the night..."), "London", "The Fly", "The Smile" and an exerpt from "America". All in all, one of the favourite TD albums. In style and sound, it's probably closest to `Livemiles' and `Shy People'. Don't let the vocals put you off -- it's a real TD album, and a good one at that.

Composed, arranged and performed by Froese, Franke, Haslinger.
Lead vocals by Jocelyn Bernadette Smith.

Tyranny of Beauty's sound is marked by fast rhythms and various guitar and saxophone parts. Most of the run-time of this album, however, remains instrumental, and the music is similar to the other work of Tangerine Dream--fervent, provocative and ever-changing with a focus on electronic keyboards. People like to crucify Miss Smith but the truth is, she sings beautifully. The engineering in this one though, was not too bright. Not to mention that the attempt to put together poems by William Blake and their sound was not the best idea either. They seem to run in different direction, music and words. Nevertheless, this work has very good moments, especially "Alchemy Of The Heart" and "21st Century Common Man (Part I)". It is a more commercial Tangerine Dream than we are used to hear.
