A lot of people love this album and I understand why. Tangerine Dream as a band mastered the art of atmosphere and subtlety and were pioneers of electronic music. But, to somebody who enjoys melodic, soulful music, listening to Phaedra is about as fun as reading a Dickens novel. Too much air, not enough substance.The above statement may be unfair of me. Tangerine Dream wasn't set on making "fun" music. "Interesting" is a much better term. But it's not even interesting unless the sound of the wind perplexes you.
