This is a very private collection of Tangerine Dream's Madcap's Flaming Duty CD – the soundtrack to the identically-named DVD (before we offered the DVD and CD together in one package) but now it's possible to get one or the other.
This CD includes a romantic bonus song and you will feel when listening to the beautiful poetic tracks how the band performed in a very cool and relaxed atmosphere. The Madcap's (DVD and) CD is probably the most intimate and private session the band has done so far. Sit back and relax while watching or in this case listening parts of a very different world of Tangerine Dream's musical universe.
'The late Syd Barrett still inspires reverence and awe in fans and former peers alike. This late-career album by electronic music stalwarts Tangerine Dream celebrates the man and his mad genius in a set of quietly regal songs that borrow their lyrics from classic English and American poetry. To hear a Walt Whitman ode set to Edgar Froese's melodic inventions is a thing of rare, twisted beauty indeed - like Syd Barrett himself.'
