Studio album. Released April 2007.
This album was released in 3 different formats: CD & DVD (Germany) CD (UK) Download NB: Track times differ between the three formats, those given above are the longest out of the three. * This track does not appear on the UK release. N.B. Later releases contained a bonus track, 'Metaphor Earthling's Reality', which can also be found on the CD single Metaphor. A promotional single was released in March 2007, just before the album. Madcap's Flaming Duty was heavily promoted, much more than any other TD album of the last decade. A London-based PR agency was hired and an internet domain (http://www.tangerinedreamnewcd.com) was reserved just to advertise the album. Part of the campaign was the promo CD 'Madcap's Flaming Promo', which was available for free; you just had to send an e-mail to Voiceprint and a few weeks later you received a parcel from somewhere in Europe containing the CD! This promo release contains a relatively long interview (40:38) with Edgar Froese with radio broadcaster Jon Kirkman. The main topic of the interview is the forthcoming album of course, and several excerpts of Madcap's Flaming Duty are interspersed throughout the interview. You can listen to this interview on the web page mentioned above (but not the track mentioned below, unfortunately!) This promo CD also contains a unique instrumental version of the track 'Astrophel And Stella' that is unavailable on any other official release (running time 9:23).
