Anyone?
Sorry, the ballads are not my thing.
I usually prefer the more up-tempo tracks, but I must say that Death Of A Nightingale is absolutely beautiful.
Beatuiful? Perhaps. Exciting? Nope.

have a listen to Zeit, the album is the most exciting listen you will ever have......huge amounts of 'slow' TD is thrilling.....or are you a fan of the 90s TD clitter clatter clitter clatter club style drum work

Red Roadster is a great track, but is there more than a couple of seconds of sax on it?

The same pretty much goes for "Longing For Cashba" as well, but sometimes less is more. In both tracks, I love how the sax is used.

Funnily enough I was just thinking that...it's a while since I've heard it. Maybe it's about eight seconds near the end
I'll listen to it again tonight and remember being 21 and feel sad!

The sax on Red Roadster starts after 7 minutes.

The sax is by Richi (Richard) Wester by the way, not Linda Spa.

I listened to Red Roaster (or Red Rooster as I like to call it) a few nights ago. Still sounds good, lots of tension and build up. A little nostalgic. Two bursts of saxophone near the end of the track...yes not all the sax on TD tracks is by Linda Spa.

Red Roadster is indeed a great track, the best one on Rockoon along with Big City Dwarves. Clearly a band with lots of confidence from film composing. It's kind of filmic.
