Peter Baumann wearing a Radio Clyde t shirt. First time I heard them was on a Radio Clyde radio show in 1975. They played all of Rubycon and a side of Phaedra. Loved their music since that Saturday night.
I've heard that they hit some high DB counts in live shows. As you say, impossible to convey now. And to think they were labelled "New Age" in the late 1980s!
Just wanting to say thanks for making this available. So good hear hints of themes from the pieces that ended up on albums and some of those signature sounds. This is a priceless video of the Tangs in their pomp.
It's great that these videos are on you tube for people like me who never got to see them perform live because where I live everybody loves country music.
Interesting rare footage of the legendary Tangerine Dream line up during the seventies. Reminds me of Ricochet live. I can listen to them all day long, never enough!
For me they were at there best in the 70's and 80's saw them live in 78 always amazing. Its incredible that today you can make this music on a laptop wow how times change.
Fascinating . I saw Tangerine Dream play in York Minster [ 76?] incredible experience . The concentration required by the 3 to put these extended improvisations together is remarkable
Agree wholeheartedly with scitsalcoryp.'74-'77 was their best years with Bauman.I prize recording of concerts in this era above all others! Long live the mellotrons,rythmn machines,moogs and the VC3s!
Peter Baumann with a Radio Clyde t shirt on. That's where I first heard them one Saturday night in 1975. A show called ' New To You ' on Radio Clyde ( Glasgow ) played Rubycon and Phaedra. Have liked them since then...
It really was like exploring a new frontier back then. All new, exciting, dangerous, dark, uplifting, thought provoking and colourful. I wish I could switch my brain into innocent mode and enjoy this at the 100% I used to before all the pollution of the last 30 years clouded my immagination. Still fantastic though thankfully :).
first time i saw them live was in the october 1974 in london. i didn't know the band at all and i was amazed at what i heard and saw. i am not sure but i think they improvised a lot in that show too.
@aegisgfx Oh I dunno, I'd have loved to have seen them back in the day, vintage synths like these are fascinating. A bit of knob-twiddling is always good to watch.
Spooky diffuse sounds until 3:30 the first proof of music emerges and quickly establishes a solid groove from which the rest of the music springs to life.
It's the Mellotrons really. Because TD had theirs filled with custom tapes, they effectively had sound samplers (for acoustic rather than purely synthetic sounds) years before anyone else, like the knitting machine noise (as well as the male choirs and oddly on this piece, the grand piano). See my book "Analog Synthesizers" available through Amazon.
You have only three wishes my master what would it be? " I want to be Peter Baumann, I want to be Baumann, Peter and Peter Baumann. Thanks for uploading this rare footage.
***** Firstly, death *does* exist, whether you wish it to be true or not: It's like denying we need air to breathe. Secondly, the term is "disrespectful". And thirdly, how am I being disrespectful by simply stating a fact?
agreed. it would be cool if franke would team up with froese for just a little studio song or two for the hell of it, with all the technology they have now
It's not 100% improvised - variations on this (untitled) piece cropped up throughout their 1976 gigs and never made it onto official releases. But yes, there was a lot of improvisation involed; no two renditions were exactly the same.
It would be, but they hate each other now unfortunately. Froese has said that of all the musicians he's ever worked with, Franke is the only one he wouldn't so much as have a coffee with.
Where did you hear that bunk ? I'm reading the autobiography right now . Well , you may be right . I've already caught him lying ... or maybe his last wife changed the autobiographical writing from Edgars' diary . The text claimed he never smoked , but there have been photos of him with a cig in hand
@@quasarsphere You should give his autobiography a read, if you have the time . It's quite thick . Funny enough you should mention that he wouldn't have a cup of coffee with Christoph . They did indeed seperate for 6 months after Force Majeure in 1978 , and Froese had scoured Germany to find a replacement ...and basically had to come back to Franke . Their whole separation was over bad financial planning and lack of contracts , so when Froese and Franke sat down with lawyers in 1978 , after the meeting ... the 1st thing Edgar asked Chris was did he want to go have coffee . haha so , somebody is not telling the truth .
@@scitsalcoryp That was in 1978. I think Froese was still willing to have coffee with Franke up until 1987. They parted acrimoniously, I think. I dunno. Years ago.
Wow... considering Edgar Froese FOUNDED the group, you might show a bit more respect. Using the guitar as the melodic device in this piece gave it a distinct thread and the sound itself is so morphed, it's barely a guitar. It's no different then any of the other sounds weaving in and out of the tapestry. Either you like the music or you don't; take a part of it away and it's something else.
I've been a TD fan for a good 3 decades now and as much as I love them I have to agree that Edgar's guitar work often leaves a lot to be desired. Sometimes it fits, sometimes it doesn't. I have friends who can play better, none of them have any fame or fortune however.
La mia volontà è determinata, ma la riuscita è del tutto improbabile, si nuota contro corrente, si fa vela verso l'inesistente, non si può approdare a nulla, il potere, il $erpente aureo dei Pixel, il coyote truffatore di vecchia data, Ouroborus oggi torna con le immagini di allora, gli stessi motivi falsamente ideologici, le stesse suggestioni, e le risate di allontanamento, la Non attenzione- sono un eco che da mia moglie $antipp e mio figlio edonismo alla ricerca del piacere dicono $ol-morte
At last someone else also thinks froese was the least talented of the trio.People forget he was "co-founder".Thats not to say the best,listen to sorcerer he distroys the album with his guitar at the end.
When Franke left Tangerine Dream, they had a strong discussion about who would keep a recording studio that both parts claimed as his. At the end, Franke did, much to Froese's disillusion. He also took offence at some comments of Franke on Tangerine Dream having become a production line and not being cutting edge music anymore (no way you want to stay friends spreading around such stuff). You can take for granted that they 100% definitely WON'T reunite.

Saw this line up 37 years ago today. One thing which never comes across in these clips is how incredibly, deafeningly, LOUD they were live! :-)

OUTSTANDING!! when i was young in the late 70s i would have never believed i would ever see this. amazing.
TD - Electronic Music Legend Group ! Poland Loves Tangerine Dream ;-)
I thought I knew all the works of Tangerine Dream of the 70's. This one I didn't know.. and it's great!
For me they were at there best in the 70's and 80's saw them live in 78 always amazing. Its incredible that today you can make this music on a laptop wow how times change.
Finally, proper footage of Edgar playing guitar from their classic/golden era!
Baumann,Franke,Fröse waren das beste Trio bei Tangerine Dream.
Kudos to Edgar for playing the Mellotron piano sound. Never heard anyone use that before.
Fascinating . I saw Tangerine Dream play in York Minster [ 76?] incredible experience . The concentration required by the 3 to put these extended improvisations together is remarkable
Richard Wright ran a piano through a rotating Leslie speaker (the sound here)
They're supreme, they got the most fabolous synths i've ever seen!!!
It's a very rare video!
Thank you very much!
RIP, Edgar Froese.
Thanks for posting this video. I love seeing TD video footage from this era.
Excellent.... Classic Tangerine Dream Live On German T.V.
Agree wholeheartedly with scitsalcoryp.'74-'77 was their best years with Bauman.I prize recording of concerts in this era above all others! Long live the mellotrons,rythmn machines,moogs and the VC3s!
This clip is absolutely priceless!
Love that sequencer rhythm. The mellotron piano at the beginning reminds me of Grind from the Sorcerer soundtrack.
This is great. Thanks for posting this. I´ve been a fan of theirs since the mid seventies and I´ve never seen this.
fabulous
Magic
i love their murky old music so much. i was listening to music from Metroid Fusion and it reminds me of this kinda stuff

great video thanks
have seen them often but nice to see this one
Those Mellotron tapes!!!
Awesome! love the underlaying Mellotron Choir....
Everything of this sounds incredibly actual.
Amazing.

Tangerine Dream mit Improvisationen immer noch am besden.
This could be the best TD live video on here!
@aegisgfx Oh I dunno, I'd have loved to have seen them back in the day, vintage synths like these are fascinating. A bit of knob-twiddling is always good to watch.
Spooky diffuse sounds until 3:30 the first proof of music emerges and quickly establishes a solid groove from which the rest of the music springs to life.
sublime
Well actually back in these days you wouldn't watch too much. You'd rather close your eyes and enjoy the images the music would provoke.
It's the Mellotrons really. Because TD had theirs filled with custom tapes, they effectively had sound samplers (for acoustic rather than purely synthetic sounds) years before anyone else, like the knitting machine noise (as well as the male choirs and oddly on this piece, the grand piano).

Géniale !!
The Heros Back❤
R.I.P E.F❤
Note the loose key at 3:55! hahaha!
that's how mellotron's keyboard is
@Desirable Musical Sounds Yes, the most famous song with mellotron might be "Joan of arc"
great performance!
this is scary and creepy at times, but very futuristic and sounds like some space travel
indimenticabili anni 70/80 con Schulze e Vangelis e i primi Kraftwerk
Mon Dieu mon Dieu

Nice video, the music is
a dream*****
same here!
excellent bbravo
Understandable if what you're looking for is entertainment. But if you are there more for the music, you're not listening with your eyes, are you?
I remember how fun it was to drop acid and listen to TD. It made you wish album sides were 4 hours long.
***** Me and my two likes seem to disagree with you...
***** And now Edgar Froese is dead...
***** Firstly, death *does* exist, whether you wish it to be true or not: It's like denying we need air to breathe. Secondly, the term is "disrespectful". And thirdly, how am I being disrespectful by simply stating a fact?
***** Seriously? Are you still hanging on to this?? I have since let go and have moved on...
+Adrian Lackey I only got turned on to them near the end of my tripping days, but I did hear them on shrooms one night. That was wonderful.
GOLD ERA *! full analog.
I Like Improvisation... My best composition.
He has taken the Big Sleep in Search of Hades. My 960 gently weeps.
wowee
Tangerine Dream invented Techno.
krikey!!! i'm appalled yet again at their zany trippiness
agreed. it would be cool if franke would team up with froese for just a little studio song or two for the hell of it, with all the technology they have now
@kernel409 By all means if you are tripping..you should try Klaus Schulze
Those psychedelic moving images were likely playing like a movie, as was common at shows of this nature.
How many electronic bands have you seen in the past 15 years that can do an 8 minute live improvisation from scratch like this
It's not 100% improvised - variations on this (untitled) piece cropped up throughout their 1976 gigs and never made it onto official releases. But yes, there was a lot of improvisation involed; no two renditions were exactly the same.
Yep they sounded good when they had a framework to play to.
Party Time
Then they're the coolest house painters I've ever seen.
The guitar was made to mesh with the synth sounds, and might not fit the preconceived notion of "guitar jamming" that some people are used to.
Tangerine Dream is THE group.
1976 is THE year.
Modular synths rule!
It would be, but they hate each other now unfortunately. Froese has said that of all the musicians he's ever worked with, Franke is the only one he wouldn't so much as have a coffee with.

lovely orignal retro sounds that you can't do with the new stuff that out today.....
Is it their best lineup or are they fighting for superiority?

Great Music &Band!!made from Germany 👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻👍🏻
You have to be stoned out on quaaludes to appreciate this.

I meant watching the concert is boring,...
Prefer Soft Machine if I'm honest.
Geil
