Notes
In autumn/winter of 1969 Edgar Froese, founder of Tangerine Dream, met Klaus
Schulze and Conrad Schnitzler. This trio formed the line-up of Tangerine Dream
to record the debut album Electronic Meditation. The band was supported by two
other musicians: Jimmy Jackson (organ) and Thomas Keyserling (flute), but both
were mysteriously left out of the credits of the original album.
Klaus Schulze later remembers: "We recorded and toured Electronic
Meditation. That for me is the primary electronic album. Edgar played guitar,
Schnitzler organ and me drums through loads of effects. We were experimenting
with a lot of random stuff and were making up our own sounds. I remember Conrad
had this metal cup full of these bits of glass in which he stuck a microphone
attached to each machine. I played a lot of different percussive sounds that
were then altered by machines. It was just great to be in a band who were open
to so much experimentation."

Notes
In October 1970 Edgar Froese had been asked by a friend to co-produce the German version of the Simon and Garfunkel song "The Boxer" for a German artist. He still did some of these "bread and butter" jobs at that period of time and was looking for a good drummer after Klaus Schulze had left the group. During that recording session, Edgar Froese met Chris Franke, a drummer who had just turned 17 and whose drumming was unusually varied. Edgar hired him for various studio jobs before he asked him if he wanted to play with TD.
The line-up Edgar Froese/Chris Franke/Conrad Schnitzler gave many concerts and TV appearances, since their music was considered very exotic at that time. TD gave a TV concert for twelve pinball machines, guitar, cello and drums - it was a live TV broadcast and caused a wave of public protest. In spite of this, TD was well booked at home and abroad, though there are no album releases with this line-up. After Conrad Schnitzler had left the group he was replaced by Steve Schroyder. For their second album, Alpha Centauri, TD experimented for over three weeks making their original organ sound, that was pure luxury in those days. The spacey image of the music began during these years.
