Synopsis

Album Description

The first of the Boot Moon series, "Live in Montreal 1977" captures the band on the same tour. What is interesting for the fans is to compare this release with the aforementioned Virgin release and notice the many differences. When you hear those differences you can see why the band is so heavily bootlegged. The second in this series captures the band on home turf with Live in Aachen 1981. Following in the success of their recent Virgin releases Force Majeure and White Eagle, this era is seen by many fans as their 'golden period'. The band had become more structured than on their earlier albums with a less improvised edge to their music. This change was accelerated by the advent of sequencers and drum machines, of which Tangerine Dream were seen by many as leading exponents. In conclusion the Boot Moon series provides a unique insight into the band's live evolution and is essential to both causal supporters and die-hard fans of the band alike. This series is designed to capture the high points of the band's live concerts over three decades, making them available to the band's sizable fan base in deluxe packaging and at reasonable prices. *PLEASE NOTE THAT THE TRACK ERROR HAS BEEN CORRECTED!

Flawed beauty! PLEASE read!

"NOTE! This Cd set has half of another concert accidentally inserted as disc #2! It is widely known and talked about on the T.D. fan-sites,...but ,to get all of this show,you must buy the Tangerine Dream Live in AACHEN ,Germany set! Then switch the second discs in the two sets.Both concerts are great,and you'd probably want both anyway...but now you know the secret!NOW a review for you!This show is one of the same vintage as T.D.'s ENCORE (live in USA) release from the 1970's.This is different enough to warrent your buying it,heck each show,night to night,was a different beast! PLUS it is a relic of the PRIME Tangerine Dream era!Now one drawback,other than the disc "switcheroo" noted above....There are DJ announcements whispered over the music at various points through the show.But I find them quite neat,and not too diverting. They make you feel like you are listening to the actual broadcast ,at the time of broadcast in the 1970's! A nice creepy feeling of time-slip...to go with this creepy electronic freak-out of a show.This is a great concert! But you will have to buy the Aachen disc set to get it all."

Beware of disc 2

"The music is indeed no doubt flawless vintage baumann years. Great improvisation pounding sequencers scorching guitars. Unfortunately the correction on the second disc still hasn't been done. There is no Montreal cd 2 this contains AAchen disc 2 tracks. Even if you buy the AAchen set you will end up with double Aachen cd 2. I made inquiries and they say this was done intentinally for some reasons unknown. I suggest Amazon should make a note so buyers will not be decieved. I feel so short changed since the montreal disc 2 is nowhere to be found but only on the Tangerine Tree webring.

Special and many thanks to Royce Mangubat M.D. of the Philipppines for ordering these cds for me from Amazon. Thank you Royce!!"

Tangerine Dream - 'Live In Montreal,Canada' (Boot Moon) 4 1/

Mike Reed | USA | 04/02/2007

"Very good 2-CD/2 hour live performance from the German kings of synthesizer progressive rock, Tangerine Dream. Show took place on April 9, 1977. Total of nine semi-mind altering tracks for your pure listening pleasure here. Personally, cuts here I dug the absolute most were the 24-minute "Thrid Movement", a bit of krautrock madness-the 20-minute "Fourth Movement" and the rather sedate "Bonus Track 3". Very enjoyable. 'Live In Montreal' is from a series of live vintage Tangerine Dream recordings that officially compete with the much-circulated band's bootlegged shows. After just one listen, you'll fully understand WHY fans are willing to take time to hunt down such albums. Recommended."
