586.0. "Tangerine Dream's Pergamon problems" by COMICS::HUDSON (that's what I think) Mon Jan 05 1987 05:29

    I bought a copy of this cd and when I ask my yamaha cdx1 to play
    track 1 it hunts around for maybe 10 seconds before starting somewhere
    in the middle of the track (seems a bit random).  I can review it
    with the << button to the beginning and play it all, and it finds
    track 2 ok.  The same thing happened on a friend's cdx3 player.
    I got a replacement for the disk and the same thing happens.  Has
    anyone had any experience of this disk?  BTW it's good if you like
    TD.

    My copy of Pergamon works perfectly on at least 4 different CD players.
    
    And, yes, if you like T/D, Pergamon is an excellent album. It's
    significant for several reasons:
    
    	o It was the first performance of a western "rock" (used loosely)
    	  band in East Germany. (Tickets sold on the black market for
    	  over $250 apiece).
    
    	o It was the first live performance after Peter Baumann left
    	  the band and was replaced by Johannes Schmoelling.
    
    	o Much of the material on "Tangram" (used in the "Risky Business"
    	  soundtrack) was developed at this time.
