- Avoid!Here is an example of the very worst type of "Best of..." collection discs: loaded up with tracks from the least popular of the albums from the period it covers and featuring only "bleeding chunk" extracts of the good material. If Amazon allowed discs to get no stars, this would qualify. (For a fuller review--and some tips on which TD discs to buy instead--see this disc's entry on the amazon.co.uk site.)

- Not the best compilation for the pink years.I'm a big fan of TD's early chapter but this "best of" album does'nt quite give a good overview of the "pink years". It seems short and feels more like an album of misc. tracks. Although I like the tracks from "green desert" they don't seem like they belong. The first CD of "book of dreams" which features remixed and shorter versions of pink year songs is actually a better listening experience because the tracks flow together really nicely.This album has some diversity to it but it does'nt feature "wahn" which is one of their most unique and powerful tracks from that era. I recommend getting "book of dreams" and "Atem" (1973) and you'll have most of the good tracks from the pink years.

- A big disapointmentBeing a great fan of Jean Michel Jarre I've been very interested in Electronic music. A friend intoduced me to TD with the album Underwater Sunlight (which is amazing). I bought this album bearing in mind that the first albums by Jarre is among his best, but my god...this is not the case with TD! This is by far the worst cd I've ever heard. I love catchy themes and soundscapes, but this cd has neither. It's a series of weird sounds and effects. To be honest I'm surprised how anyone can enjoy this album, but then again...every man - different taste, and I respect that.

- What a wonderful sampler for your space music collection.Okay this is a journey through spacey currents and ancient rituals done by Tangerine Dream, this sampler of the pink years is still influenced by artists like Steve Roach and Robert Rich who still have done ambient music like this in the 90s and 00s. Includes excerpts of "Nebulous Dawn" and "Atem". A sampler of the pink years (1970-1973).
