Talk:Force Majeure (Tangerine Dream album)

Recorded in 1978 - spread the word

[edit]

Numerous sources, both in print and on the web, give the recording date of this album as 1979. This is incorrect. The confusion (most probably) stems from the fact that the original LP credits give August/September (with no year indicated) as recording dates, and that the record was originally released in Feburary 1979, hence a '79 copyright date printed on the record.

Franz Liszt - Totentanz

[edit]

One of the last 'movements' of the title track uses a melody from Franz Liszt's Totentanz (hear it yourself!). Should this be mentioned in the article? N1mr0d (talk) 23:08, 2 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

La Folia actually, I believe. But I'm not sure if we have any reference for this. --Trɔpʏliʊmblah 03:12, 4 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
However, if a good source comes up, yeah, it should probably be mentioned. I'd also resist my temptation to label it the Bunny Part, since this is Wikipedia. :) MXVN (talk) 20:57, 24 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
By now would be easily citable at least as "a piece by Arcangelo Corelli" from Froese's autobio. --Trɔpʏliʊmblah 11:50, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

the lede...

[edit]

... skips right over "cyclone", suggesting that the line-up (a returning steve joliffe on vocals) is a non-canonical experiment. this needs correcting, imho. the band released a few titles in quick succession, including their first proper s/t work ("sorceror"); to say that this album immediately followed "stratosfear" is at the very least wrong.

The intention is probably to suggest musical, not strictly release-chronological, succession. --Trɔpʏliʊmblah 11:51, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
