Our Take

Get ready to be transported to a neon-soaked 80s high school prom with Tangerine Dream and Sylvester Levay's score for "Three O'Clock High". This album is a nostalgic trip down memory lane, blending electronic pulsations with dramatic orchestral flourishes in a way that only these iconic musicians can.

From the opening track, "First Bell", you're immediately hit with a sense of urgency and anticipation, as if you're late for class and running through the hallways to make it on time. The synths swirl and cascade like a whirlwind of teenage emotions, perfectly capturing the chaotic energy of high school life.

Tracks like "Principal's Office" and "Detention" evoke a sense of foreboding and mischief, with pounding rhythms and eerie synth melodies that will have you peeking over your shoulder for the watchful eyes of authority figures. And when the album reaches its climax with "Final Showdown", you can practically feel the tension in the air as two rivals face off in a battle of wills.

Overall, Tangerine Dream and Sylvester Levay have crafted a soundtrack that is equal parts thrilling and evocative, taking listeners on a sonic journey through the ups and downs of adolescence. So put on your Members Only jacket, grab your Trapper Keeper, and prepare to be transported back in time with "Three O'Clock High".
