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.
The four tracks consist of 3-4 distinct sections each. The third and fourth sections of "Tangent" were entitled "Polish Dance" and "Rare Bird" when both appeared on the B-side of the 12" single release of "Warsaw In The Sun", which is the second section of "Barbakane" in remixed form.
"Barbakane" was shortened to 13:52 on most CD reissues, in order to fit the 80-minute time restraint of the CD, and to avoid having to issue a double disc version.
Out of twelve CD releases, only three issues have the complete album:
All other issues have the truncated version of "Barbakane". Some releases remove "Tangent" altogether.
It was also available as a limited edition picture disc which feature the cover photos directly on the vinyl.
The following equipment were used on this live recording:
Chris Franke
