Couldn't have put it better.JD wrote:Unless you were really there and a witness to the every day process of making TDs albums, then its all speculation. If Franke had never always sat near his trademark Moog Modular then some people might not label him the "sequencer king". Its interesting to note the same people are always still waiting for Chris to prove this on his solo albums and scores too, and he never really does.
As for TD, does matter who was where, & when?
What was produced,by what ever combination of musicians worked with EF at any given time, is what matters. The fact is EF IS TD. it's not "The Edgar Froese Band", or Froese, Franke & Baumann, or Schmoelling, Froese,Jollife or what ever name would get tagged on after Edgars. He is, obviously, the one constant that has given us a reason,over the last 40 years, for being here now.
The reason is TANGERINE DREAM.
