I found Klemania to be a little clichéd, but I agree about London Concert, PCH and Celestine Prophecy - the latter has some exceptional pieces. I also really like Enchanting Nature - although it has a few PCH tracks, it also has some stunning original compositions that the PCH tracks sit better with (imho).
He's not the Messiah, he's a very naughty boy!

this is a non thread as cf's solo albums imho amount to PCH and a hill of beans, a terrible terrible shame, but hollow woods dollar crushed the modular under its hum vee wheels of fortune :roll: :roll:


and in any case how do we know that any cf solo album post 70's would be as we wanted any way, y'know: dong,dong dong, sequencer sequencer bish bash bosh....if cf had the will.....the solo lp we wanted, or think we wanted would have been in our hands in 77 etc

I had to check out this iTunes thing, and found some interesting albums by CF and SJ, and as a test bought Perry Rhodan, burned it to cdr, and was generally impressed by the easy process, and the audio quality iTunes provides, especially when burning to cdr, that there's no breaks between the tracks.

Perry Rhodan is an alright album, totally bombastic, but some fine moments and pop songs. Even a little like Vangelis goes Eurovision sometimes, but is better than that, and good as a whole.

What you don’t like Celestine prophecy I like it.
I thought it was good but not that bad.
It a modern new age music.

Less news on Franke these days as far as I found on the internet. Can we expect something new from him?

Hmmm.

I guess that ain't going to be a sequencer and synth fest. :roll:

Are you serious now, or is this a joke?

CF's work is very patchy. I can't say that I do much more than use the CDs as dust collectors now. Shame.

Like I've posted before, the new B5 OST is very mediocre. As is the film overall.

I'm still waiting for a creative burst from the man, to shake me from my apathy towards his output.
