Zeit

Double album on Orange vinyl, printed inner sleeves and OBI strip. New edition of the classic album Zeit by Tangerine Dream. Released in August 1972 on the OHR label in Germany, Zeit was recorded at the Dierks Studio near Cologne and also featured a guest appearance by Florian Fricke of Popol Vuh. One of the group's finest early albums, Zeit was enthusiastically championed in the UK by John Peel and was a major breakthrough for Tangerine Dream. It was a vintage year for releases from bands loosly associated with the Kraut Rock movement. Zeit is four long slow movements without any percussion or rhythm, save that of slow periodic repetitions of gestating themes. Listen to this and you put yourself outside normal music, perhaps even normal space-time.
