Finally got around to listening to it! Really like it. So much so, I've downloaded it.

One of the bona fide all time greats. Love on a real train is one of my favourites ever.Tangerine Dream - Ricochet. German band way ahead of their time. Electronics and musical instruments were a big experiment for them at the time. You needed a great stereo system to really benefit this sound!

Given Ricochet a listen and the Orb - given me a bit of music anxiety - how am I going to listen to all this cracking stuff ? I catch a clip on the radio and think - that’s brilliant must dig it out so it was Nantucket Sleighride on Sunday night - just epic - have now taken to putting Planet rock on Sunday night as I go to bed to catch the long player
That's just epic.Gong - Shamal
Nice bit of mid 70s prog.
That's just epic.
Could work as an instrumental also.
If you’re not already you should get on Mixcloud- hours of great stuff like this.While you're tangerine dreaming, I would also heartily recommend Neu, Harmonia, Cluster, La Dusseldorf and Can. That's the beauty of Spotify and similar services. Try before you buy. I've always been a bit mad on German electronica.
There's also a couple of more "modern" takes on that kind of stuff. Stereolab. Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant. That's all I can say.
Also Kosmischer Laufer, which means Cosmic Runner. They have a great backstory, which is totally false.
The story is a guy was smuggled over the border from East to West Germany in the early 70s to record music for the East German Olympic teams to train to and to inspire.

It's all nonsense, it's a bloke from Sheffield. All brilliant stuff though, there have been four albums so far, each one a peach.
Ah yes. gene Pitney. The man who's voice inspired Elmer Fudd.Gene Pitney I'm gonna be strong , Town without Pity,The Man who Shot Liberty Valence and a Version of Angels never heard before. He used to be great live. Just read on You Tube he once performed without a mic at Great Yarmouth when it broke well believe it
Great song.Now THIS is MY era! The incredible 1960's. Best ever decade for music! Where it all started!

Feeling in a 70s mood this morning (depite being 28 years old!)
He's fine. We private message each other now and again, mostly about music. He's in the process of moving so it might be awkward for him to sit and type!Where's our friend BBR , nearly a month without a post .
Hope he hasn't slipped off his ladder during the shitty weather we've had.
Great.He's fine. We private message each other now and again, mostly about music. He's in the process of moving so it might be awkward for him to sit and type!

Sleighride is one of the greatest pieces of music ever.Given Ricochet a listen and the Orb - given me a bit of music anxiety - how am I going to listen to all this cracking stuff ?
