Tangerine Dream – Force Majeure (UK First Pressing Clear Vinyl LP, Virgin V 2111, A-1/B-1)

An original UK first pressing of Tangerine Dream's landmark album Force Majeure on clear vinyl, released on Virgin Records (V 2111). Both sides carry A-1 and B-1 matrix designations — confirming this as a genuine first pressing cut from the original lacquers. The clear vinyl edition is the scarce, collectible variant of this release, distinct from the standard black vinyl pressing and actively sought by Tangerine Dream and kosmische collectors worldwide. Vinyl in NM (Near Mint) condition; sleeve in EX (Excellent) condition.

Holding a clear vinyl copy of Force Majeure is to hold one of the most immersive listening experiences in the kosmische canon. Released in 1979, the album opens with the epic, side-long title track — a slowly evolving, hypnotic journey through synthesizer textures and sequencer patterns that remains one of Tangerine Dream's finest achievements. The Virgin UK first pressing on clear vinyl with original A-1/B-1 lacquers represents the definitive collector's configuration of this essential record. A NM clear vinyl copy in this condition is genuinely rare.
