Tangerine Dream, "Bath Tube Session," Berlin, 1969

[@oortx]

Undoubtedly one of the best videos on the internet.

Agreed. 🎸 👽 🎸

REST EASY MR SCHULZE

[@flowers321]

RIP Klaus Schulze

[@angeloronzoni]

R.I.P. Edgar Froese (1944-2015)

[@stephenhowes8937]

He was actually a very good guitarist as exemplified on Stratosfear & Force Majeure. Whatever he was doing in this video does not represent his true talent.

[@feywerfolevado6286]

This is like a cultural time capsule in film.

[@Ramblin-Man]

"Happy" Dieter died in 1974. I guess he was too "happy" too often...

[@xylemexperimental]

Klaus D. Müller and Klaus Schulze both confirmed what Andy King says. It seems Happy Dieter never divulged his surname.

[@Otterysteve]

Fan-bloody-tastic! Love it, never heard them like this. Thanks for posting this! :-)

[@marcusross8751]

You can't really see "Rubycon" here, can you?

[@Switcher1972]

More "Electronic Meditation" or "Alpha Centauri"... ;)

[@Blacksquareable]

Wow! Completely different! No synths! Like a lot of bands I guess. Fairport and Queen started out from a completely differnt place to where they ended up.

[@wifikraftofficial8645]

That’s because they were krautrock

[@enzoperrin9176]

Haha so fun,He don't know hot to play guitar,but it's cool to see Klaus on drums,good drummer.

[@charlesroberts3650]

Shades of Interstellar Overdrive , etc., early Floyd jams. I think it's a compliment to say so. PF invented some forms of "Space Rock", TD just developed and explored further, two of my favorite bands......Edit: CONFIRMED, early TD jams WERE conscious "variations" on the theme of Interstellar Overdrive, etc. I read it on the Wikipedia page.

[@Switcher1972]

Not surprising, The Floyd was a huge influence of the times.

[@stevendphoto]

Wow, this is truly historic!

I'm sure I read somewhere that this area was heavily bombed out (and spaced out by the look if it!) in the war which is why it looks kind of empty and cavernous in this film. The rebuilding process took many years.

They actually blasted it in 1973. Today there is the "Sony Centre"

The drummer blows keith moon of the stage, Not only was he with tangerine dream, but he was also drummer four Ashra Temple

[@mikefloyd9171]

Quite similar to the space(d) jams played by early Guru Guru (listen to the UFO lp!) on LSD.

In the description it says, "...No one seems to know who "Happy" Dieter was...". He's related to Happy Kyne and the Mirthmakers. Or Happy Klein or Kline, there seems to be some confusion.

Reel KOOOLE

[@jonathanroff5065]

I'd be guessing 'Happy" Dieter was probably Dieter Moebius (R.I.P. 2015). Although I don't think he ever had a moustache after 1969.

no, totally different guy. 'Happy' Dieter died of a drug overdose in 1974

Beavis dance 2:05

[@Meddled]

I don't see any mics on the drums and amps, so I think the music is dubbed on. This explains why nobody is dancing in time I suppose.

[@TheMaltesePenguin]

I think the music explains why Niemand is dancing in time.

[@ATastyEnd]

dancing in time, the music is barely in time lmao

[@stefan1024]

It just works fine with one or two mics placed in the room. This is some tiny art happening and not Woodstock, nobody mic'd drums on an event like this in 1969. They just started recording live shows in a propper way back then. Even in the 90s, drums were sometimes unmic'd on smaller shows I visited.

[@cycopaul13]

dancing on Shrooms or LSD more like

[@johnbeers5527]

You can tell by looking at their hands that the music was dubbed. Fingers playing guitar solos while we hear strumming is a good clue.

[@rickyrahma3611]

You can listen to some part that will turn into their later song, Diamond Diary 1:35

[@alanroe1020]

Tangerine dream 1967

[@mantas68]

For this type of music, it's almost better if you don't really know how to play. Different ideas come out that a well-trained musician would never think of. I'm a prime example of that. I've trained and practiced for so many years that I'm totally stuck in a rut as a conventional guitar player - lol. Oh well. At least there are plenty of free thinking musicians out there that I can listen to that are far from conventional. :)

[@grzegorzwojcik153]

Very good point

[@240high]

This is awesome but why is it on here :p

[@TimmyChipman]

[@ALotOfBottle]

Let's face it, at that time they could not play.

[@cheekrandy]

Disagree.

[@Schierke-666]

I don't know. I'm not saying this to be an annoying hipster, but I really like early TD.

[@tomlyle9948]

This is horrible. Almost embarrassingly so. That’s because all three of these musicians went on to make some of the most important (and enjoyable) music in my collection. This video reveals them as amateurs, playing music when they were hardly ready to play publicly. It is only because the audience was so naive that they were able to get away with it. I can relate, well, almost - I am also a musician (though not anywhere as well know as they became), and I’m proud of many of the works I’ve released. But if someone found a video of the band I was in the summer before I entered high school I’d crawl under a rock and would have to be coaxed out with the promise that the video and all its copies would be destroyed.

[@tomlyle4991]

Tom Lyle I mean “two of these musicians. Who the heck is that bass player? ;)

[@ondiras]

They were played by the music. So who is to blame?

[@MikeKiker]

Disagree. Even the best have to start somewhere and it's a billion times more listenable and charming than anything I did out of high school.

[@tonstudionaturesound5798]

Sorry Sir, you are damn judgemental (like Germans ;D often are .. sadly)... This is like the pure stuff, later many things were made and growing of .. :D
