not as popular as the U.S. Kaleidoscope, this British band (Tangerine Dream also refers to the German band led by Edgar Froese) was also part of the psychedelic movement with moderate domestic success, and just enough international exposure to have this album recognized in the genre's catalogue and regarded as one of the best in the same. Now sought by collectors and highly acclaimed by critics and fans this album has been musically compared to Nirvana's The Story of Simon Simopath and Pink Floyd's The Piper at the Gates of Dawn. Peter Daltrey, lead singer of the band was asked about the lyrics and the music of the album, and he wrote the following statement in the album's sleeve notes:
"The collective subject of our songs is simple, life and people. We have written our songs about you. Happy people, sad people, lovely people and a few confused people. We have written of the children, of the king and his queen, and we have also included a few words about ourselves, about our lives, about our loves and about our dreams". - wiki

Thanks you from a 60s freak.
Yawning Angel sez...
What lemonflag said +1 Thanks, RYP!
Gaius fragt:
RYP, hast Du auch die anderen Platten von Kaleidoscope? Ich habe in guter Qualität (320er) 'Faintly Blowing', 'The Sidekick Sessions, 1964-67, ed. 2003' und als Doppel-Album 'White Faced Lady, 1971'.
thanks for this.
Gaius, nee, ich habe nur die eine Kaleidoscope, die ich zufällig in meinem Archiv gefunden habe, und ehrlich gesagt, interessieren mich die anderen auch nicht soooo.; )
Wenn Du sie unter's Folk werfen willst, poste sie unter "…and now for something completely different!".
Danke aber für die Nachfrage!
Grüße aus'm Ruhrgebeat!
