[On the back cover] This set collects together the five LPs that Tangerine Dream recorded for Virgin Records between 1974 and 1978. Starting with 1974’s Phaedra, the German electronic music pioneers international breakthrough album (reaching No.15 in the UK charts) 2), this pivotal release was followed a year later by the equally well received Rubycon. Utilized the then revolutionary technology, such as electronic organs, Moog synthesizers and Mellotron keyboards, among other instruments, Peter Baumann, Chris Franke, and founder member and Tangerine Dream mainstay Edgar Froese, would often improvise live, such as the concert recordings from their 1975 European tour that make make up their third Virgin LP, Ricochet, issued at the end of that year. Combining acoustic instruments with their traditional battery of electronica, the trio created a more melodic sound for 1976’s Stratosfear. This collection finishes with 1978’s Cyclone, a major change of direction from their previous instrumental releases, as the group moved in a more progressive direction, marking not only the departure of Peter Baumann, but the addition of vocalist Steve Jolliffe and percussion from Klaus Krieger. These five highly influential albums are augmented by rare single releases and 7″ edits, as well as two rarely heard contemporary radio adverts.
