Just downloaded a video from
http://www.ina.fr which has 11 minutes of Tangerine Dream playing music to a live audience along with other artist (Klaus Schulze, Kraftwork). The music they are playing is like Reims 1974 concert. The quality of the recording is very good. Does anyone know anything about this concert.
Yes, its from 15.2.73 'Theatre de L' Ouest', Paris (with Ash Ra Tempel and Klaus Schulze), apparently it was a very well attended gig and several hundred fans had to be turned away (I vaguely remember TD saying it was 500...I should check really). It got a good three page write up in the German press, together with several colour photos of TD onstage. photos from the same gig (but this time with KS and ART) were later used in a centre-fold photo montage, with Peter Baumann listed under his full name: Hans-Peter Baumann.
TD were also to play on 16th in the 'Western Theatre' as part of the same festival
Klaus Schulze almost didn't make the gig at all, as his car broke down, so TD gave him a lift the venue. Some footage of the gig shows Peter and Chris running their voices through their synths (probably their EMS Synthi-A's /AKS's to modulate them). I couldn't download the whole clip, so I'm going by the short excerpt (from Spanish TV) on youtube
