This review is from: Pinnacles (Audio CD)

The album was originally released in 1983 and found Edgar Froese working within highly-textured soundscapes, with a focus on rich melodies.

This 2005 reissue is unfortunately an "updated" version by Froese, as he took what was one of his most solid efforts and tweaked the music. As controversial as this process has been with Tangerine Dream, Froese has jumped into the blueprint for change with his solo catalog.

While Froese has constantly shown an evolving artistry, the original four numbers - clocking 43:09 - were fascinating in what they represented in their original form (which was some of the best music by Froese). An important work is muddled, which shows - again - that all change is not good.
