Poland (album)


Poland - The Warsaw Concert is the twenty-fourth major release and fifth live album by Tangerine Dream. It spent one week on the UK Albums Chart at number 90.

Track listing

The four tracks consist of 3-4 distinct sections each. The last two of the four sections of "Tangent" are titled "Polish Dance" and "Rare Bird" respectively, and the second section of "Barbakane" is titled "Warsaw in the Sun". There are also further, less known official and unofficial names for some other sections of the album, too. It was also available as a limited edition picture disc which feature the cover photos directly on the LPs' vinyl.
Out of twelve CD releases, only three have the complete album, all others are either missing "Tangent" along with a truncated version of "Barbakane", or include "Tangent" but still with a truncated version of "Barbakane".
The second is a double-CD release, copyrighted 1984 by Zomba Ent. Inc., Made in the U.S., and apparently difficult to find. On disk one, "Rare Bird", originally an encore, is split off from "Tangent" as a track on its own. The CD artwork, however, lists "Tangent" as a single full-length track.
