I watched a movie with fantastic strange electronic music when I was about 12. I asked my dad who was playing the music. He said nonchalantly "Oh it's probably someone like Tangerine Dream." "Who?" I said. Went down to the local record shop to find over 25 albums of TD. I chose Phaedra and that was it. I was hooked. Thanks for sharing this interview.
Nice memory. Congratulations with your addiction :-)
Best band ever. RIP Edgar. Greetings Dirk Belgium.
Great vintage interview. Thanks for the upload!
Many thanks for uploads of these interviews. I was quite a keen listener of the "Breakthrough" programme & so it's great to hear Mike's voice once again. Lovely bloke & deeply missed........I keep wondering whatever happened to the vaults of tapes of all those interesting interviews he made ("answers on a postcard").
where was baumann?
According to TD's official site Baumann left the band in January 1975 abruptly for a car trip to Asia. He didn’t inform anyone about his trip and as a result, it took two weeks to find out if he was dead or alive. Michael Hoenig was already known to the band. Following the Royal Albert Hall concert, Baumann suddenly showed up in the dressing room apologizing for the "unexpected" journey and after a long conversation was back in the band.
Given that this radio interview was conducted a couple of weeks AFTER the RAH concert, if the dressing room scenario is true, it must have been hard on Michael Hoenig to be given such a prominent part in the interview, knowing that he wasn't in the band anymore!
