Tangerine Dream – Phaedra

Tangerine Dream’s 1973 Phaedra was their first on Virgin and was recorded at Richard Branson’s castle manor studio in England. The German group established their sound on this album with a Moog synthesizer, and made them a worldwide success, but still only sold 6,000 in their native country. It’s a landmark electronic album from one of the best groups in electronic music at the time, and still sounds good for the visual and moody nature of the music. Pure 70’s kosmische krautrock and a great piece of electronic music history.
