Tangerine Dream - Madcap's Flaming Duty (2007) [DVD]

'Madcap's Flaming Duty' is a 2007 album by Tangerine Dream.The album is a tribute to Syd Barrett who died in 2006; the title references Barrett's album 'The Madcap Laughs'. Filmed during a studio session in Vienna January 2007 Tangerine Dream shows a different aspect of their musical life and artistic variety. With wall to wall lyrics from famous english and american poets, the song structure of this production opens a hidden door to the band's unusual microcosm of sounds and music. Script, produced and directed by Edgar Froese. TD’s performance of all 13 songs - including a bonus song -, shows the Band in a very cool and relaxed atmosphere. Additionally you’ll see some ‘making of images’ as well as a 6 minutes Intro. It is probably the most intimate and private session the Band has done so far. Sit back and relax while watching this studio session par excellence.

Note: Along with 'Cyclone' and 'Tyger' this is one of the few Tangerine Dream releases to feature vocals.
(And although many people don't like TD doing vocal, I personally think, that this recording is simply fantastic!)
