Title: A Major Dissapointment
Review: Tangerine Dream's early years were deeply innovative and incredibly atmosperic, and as a group they practically invented the Ambient movement before anyone had ever heard of the word. This could have been a great opportunity to showcase this dark and beautiful period, but instead it contains most of the WORST bits of thier early cannon. In addition, one of the strengths of thier early works was thier ability to make 20-25 minute pieces develope and flow over time, and most of the pieces on this album are brief 5 minute excerpts. And the last three pieces are all from "Green Desert," which good as it was, didn't need to take up almost half the album. Finally, why call it "The Pink Years?" These years were DARK. Deeply atmospheric, moody, and ambient. If you want truly the best of Tangerine Dreams early years, the two CD set "Zeit" is the answer.
