5 out of 5 stars Who is Jeremy Boe?.......2007-01-26

ing this review...maybe I can come over and borrow one of your TD c.d.'s. Your review is so wonderfully descriptive....You are so very articulate. Have we met before? My name is Wendy. I will look out for you around town.

Bedford is one of the most beautiful communities close enough to New York City (certainly not Boston) and yet is predominantly full of horse farms and hilly properties. I actually know this "Jeremy Boe" and know he has seen movies, including "Sorcerer", which has a fantastic TD soundtrack. At one point, we thought we were the only ones who had seen it. I suggest that you watch this film and recommend that you fly to South America and get one of those cool devil trucks and fall off the cliff back into your oblivion.

1 out of 5 stars Who is this guy BOE?.......2003-08-19

I am not sure who this character "Jeremy Boe" thinks he is. Has he ever heard TD's music? Has he ever actually seen the movie Flashpoint? Or any movie for that matter? Where is Bedford NY for goodness sakes? Must be under a rock somewhere in the middle of the desert that he describes.

5 out of 5 stars Essential TD. Quintessential TD........2002-12-31

I stumbled onto the review section here for the first time while ordering my fourth copy of this CD (my wife and I destroy any CD that we actually play). I heard this soundtrack in a Nebraska record store in 1984 when the newly-formed HBO Pictures was trying to promo a tremendously unsuccessful movie debut. The impulse-purchase cassette introduced me to both the film and to TD. The film, an ambient mystery/suspense flick starring Treat Williams and Kris Kristofferson, is a must-see for TD fans and for conspiracy buffs, and its desert scenery formed a marvelous backdrop for the TD tunes. I won't bother telling anyone reading a TD review on this website about TD's music in general.

This soundtrack is similar to a number of TD pieces I like from the mid-70s to the mid-80s: Hyperborea, Exit, Risky Business Soundtrack, Thief Soundtrack, et al. It postdates a lot of the drifting psychedelia that some hardcore TD fans may consider the real deal, but that's a little inaccessible for people like me who just stumbled into the genre. It definitely predates the band's slide into elevator music later in the same decade. (There are probably those who differ with that assessment too, and for those people I've got copies of Canyon Dreams, Private Music of TD, etc. which are theirs for the shipping.) The tracks are short by TD album standards - 3-4 minutes - and package TD ambience into pop-sized structures.

I strongly recommend the soundtrack for anyone who enjoyed the albums listed above.

5 out of 5 stars Watch the Great Movie, Buy the Fantastic Soundtrack........2001-12-02

Much of Tangerine Dreams music is or borders on boring. I don't get it really....

This is not the case with this particular CD. I can remember particular movie scenes, vignettes, details, actors with each track--isn't this what a great soundtrack should do?

My favorite track is number five, "Lost in the Dunes", I can picture one crossing the desert floor, traversing the washes of sand at breakneck speed...then track six fades in....

Watch the movie buy the soundtrack it is this simple.
