The 7" of "Encore" b/w "Hobo March" for about 6 dollars here:

If my memory serves me well, I think "Hobo March" is nearly as good to Edgar`s "Ode to Granny A"?

It is nearly as good to Ode to Granny A, I can remember feeling a little disappointed buying Hobo March playing it and realising I already had the track on Ages.

But Vinyl Tap is a really nice mail order company. Have used them twice for some cheap collector's items.

They are a very good comapny JP - have also used them a few times and their prices are also quite reasonable.

It was worse for those of us who bought the releases in chronological order!

I can remember when buying Hobo March the record shop owner told me that he also ahd a promo single called Atmosphere for sale. After plowing through endless boxes of singles I gave up my search for it. Does anyone know if this single exists or even has a copy.

I remember in 77 during the height of Punk Rock, queuing up in Virgin Records Marble Arch branch...where they had a 'singles booth'.....and asking : ' Do you have any Tangerine Dream singles?', I still remember the lady assistant's face and her reply : ' No'.....uttered with a mocking gesture ' I might have a look, but come back later...'

and this from a shop that had deep stocks of imported kraut rock and lots of TD albums.......

I only got a copy of Hobo March sometime in 79 from a record stall in Aldershot of all places.

Interesting they are selling the 3 track edition of Rockoon for 5 euros where as Jerome is selling it for 45 euros.
