Re: VERY sad news (Conrad Schnitzler)

Wow Rev I just followed the link to learn who he was and though I didn't think I knew I knew on a level as I knew and listened to Tangerine Dream many years ago.  That's wonderful, sad, amazing that he knew his time was near and worked to the end, also pretty wild over sending his hair samples to many for a memory.  Thanks for sharing this and yes very sad a 'light' has gone out.  Listening to Magic Party now, the first video, that's wonderful.

This is very sad news!  It has personally hit me like a ton of bricks. I have been a major admirer of his works and for over 30 years now.
Another beautiful LIGHT has gone out in our often insane world. Con's gifts helped many of us to cope with our world. He will be sorely
missed, but his gifts and CONtributions will live on forever. Also, be sure to read what he was doing in preparation for his departure.
Pretty incredible and impressive. Just more evidence of what a genius, and also what a wonderful person he was. I'll miss him forever.
