I've heard a lot of bands mentioned in this list, with some faves being Amon Duul II, Faust, and, of course, CAN. I was just wondering, where would be a good place to start with Tangerine Dreams?

I was with a few people I'd met at the concert and he asked us if anyone had a cigarette (someone did). And we talked with him about his current touring (he tours with a network of musicians nowadays) and the greatness of Can. He was really humble. Also, I ripped a tour poster of the wall and he signed it.

And Phaedra is definitely a good place to start.

Out of the Krautrock albums I own, which are not that many, my favorites are definitely Ege Bamyasi by Can and So Far by Faust.

I've been wanting to check out Amon Duul II for years but their discography seems dauntingly huge. Anyone have some suggestions about the best place to start with them?

I started with Yeti, but you can't really go wrong with any of their early albums. Wolf City might be a good place to start... it's slightly more accessible than the rest IMO.

If "accessible" means it sounds more like typical 70s rock it may not actually be a very good place for me to start. Is that what Yeti is like? What would you say is their most interesting sounding album?

harmonia “musik von harmonia”
faust “rien”
can "delay 1968"

^I am by no means the authority as I only have a couple of albums but Rubycon is generally accepted to be a good un?
I used to think Vangelis nicked his ideas for the Bladerunner soundtrack from that one...

Chronotub · 04-14-2008, 06:03 PM

Rubycon's pretty cool, Phaedra is also a good one
