Tangerine Dream bootleg recordings are performances by Tangerine Dream that have attained some level of public circulation without being available as a legal release. The term most often refers to audio recordings, but also includes video performances. Bootleg recordings arise from a multitude of sources, including covertly copied live concerts, studio outtakes, broadcast performances. Some bootlegs have included material from official releases.

Contents

Tangerine Tree fan-based project releases are not considered bootlegs as they were sanctioned by Tangerine Dream from 2001 until 2006 when permission was rescinded. Most bootleg content is available as better recordings through the Tangerine Tree releases. Tree and official releases are listed as a reference to available material.

Keen Auricle is another fan project, but they did not have permission from the band and so are considered bootlegs.

Geradeaus bis zum Morgen (1972) is a German movie with yet another unreleased soundtrack. The title track can be found on the bootleg Prayer of Quiet Dreams (1993). The track was released on Tangerine Tree 36: Assorted Secrets 1

The Keep

TD scored the film The Keep in 1983, but the first issue of the soundtrack The Keep (1997) was a limited run of 150 CDs sold at a concert in the UK. Virgin soon announced that the album would be available for general release in early 1998, but legal issues with the film studio stopped the release. In 1999, the TDI label sold 300 copies of the Millennium Booster album set that included The Keep with a different cover. Out of sixteen tracks on the official release, only four were actually used in the movie. The scarcity of the official release led to high resale prices. This and the lack of the actual film music has led to an unusual number of unofficial, bootleg and fan releases.

    The bootleg set 3 Tier Dream disc three titled "Paris Dreams" is a CD version of the bootleg LP Parisian Dreams (1990) plus two tracks from Das Mädchen auf der Treppe. It includes the tracks "Another Perspective (1)" which is actually "Speed", and "Another Perspective (2)", which is actually "Das Mädchen auf der Treppe".
